1970, Bishop Rock lighthouse Relief, Isles of Scilly, Keeper supply and transfer, 8mm, Cine Reel

Taken from an 8mm reel of a 1970 Holiday, here is the Bishop Rock lighthouse relief. Before automation, a hugely popular event was the Bishop Rock lighthouse relief. The keepers and supplies were manually hauled up and down 45ft to the set off. With thanks to the Callen family for this wonderful footage shot by Don Callen.

8mm professionally transferred by TVV Productions using high res, frame-by-frame scanning for the best possible results.

Once transferred the reels and digital copies are then donated to The Isles Of Scilly Museum:
If anyone out there has any historical (Scilly) photos the Museum can scan in, for generations to enjoy and learn from, the museum can also supply you with the digital copies thereby enabling you to safeguard your original, and share with family and friends.
