Summary
MOVIETONE CARD TITLE: Going Places. DESCRIPTION: With one in seven holidaymakers choosing a Caravan holiday - with a growing demand for mobile homes instead of bricks and mortar - with an increasing export market - the International Caravan Show at Earls Court is a true trend setter. This year it also features a Camping section, while the world’s first Hovercaravan suggests that this is an industry that’s always ready to try something new. No room for experiment when you’ve got to drive ten thousand miles non stop. We look at the highly modified Ford which Peter Harper will drive in the London-Sydney Marathon Car Rally.
