Summary
Pathe Intertitles - "Like other well-known folk, Mr. Darewski has a hobby - one of the quaintest but most usefully fascinating - working in sealing wax!"
"His caricatures have amused many friends ... (A little wax on a cardboard disc, plus a spirit lamp, produces many strange "potraits".)"
"And with coloured wax (and skill) Mr. Darewski can transform the most mundane boxes, pill-boxes, calendars, etc., into useful gifts -"
Researcher Comments
A short handwritten shot list is present in the Pathé boxfile.
