Summary

MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Ideal Home. DESCRIPTION: There is a spectacular setting for the Daily Mail Ideal Home Exhibition: dancing fountains, and giant sea-horses dominate the scene. And there are avenues of ideal homes, ready for inspection by the house-hunter. The Gardens at the exhibition are as refreshing as usual. Princess Alexandra enjoyed a pre-view, and Her Royal Highness is reported as saying it was all lovely. SHOTLIST: Key scene. LS interior exhibition. MLS interior exhibition. MS fountain.
