Glass Toys (1948)

Potters Bar, Hertfordshire.



C/U of a glass figure made by toy maker Mr Dunlop. Various shots of Mr Dunlop working with glass held over a Bunsen burner, making a glass bird. Another man sits beside him doing the same. Another figure, looks like a little dog, is finished off.



Crates full of the figures are packed onto a truck. Commentator notes that although one or two find their way into the shops at home, "the vast majority carry the familiar label 'For Export Only'".
