11th International Veterinary Congress, 1930

4 reels of 16mm film silent, black and white. Edited sections of the film are securely joined together although some lengths are rather warped at times. All films have a strong odour of camphor.

These reels were given to the Contemporary Medical Archives Centre in May 1990 by Mr Peter E Curtis of the University of Liverpool Department of Clinical Veterinary Science, where they had been deposited by the widow of Mr Elam, who filmed the events.
