It's a Classic Bread & Baking Industry Film and Commercials film from the 1930's and 1940's, brought to yours truly form some person in Michigan who's got a stockpile of them on eBay. I hope there are good images, jingles or instructions on baking techniques. To be sure, it's definitely a crapshoot...but, we shall see.This is an image from the posting. The others were gigundo and blurry.
Included:
In the Dough (1931)-A film all about baking the perfect loaf of bread. You'll learn all you want to know after this reel. All about diastases, Lintner's tests, and dough fermentation. this is a riot for bakers, a head scratcher for everyone else.
Baking Industry, The (1946)- Vocational film about careers in baking.
Wonder Bread Commercial
County Fair Bread Commercial
Fischers Bread Commercial
Sunbeam Bread Commercial
Sadly it's all about bread and not at all about our beloved cakes and baking thereof, but an educational film at the very least!
I don't know if the video is a hit or a miss. The footage and narration is great and the content is very interesting. Offensive to the feminist, but fascinating that they actually used to market instructional videos like this to people (women) and that maybe people actually found it useful? I don't know that I'll use it, but maybe.
