content: The two rolls were assembled by the archivist for digitization.

content:
This film footage was shot in Victoria Falls, Matobo National Park, Esigodini (formerly Essexvale), and Bulawayo (Zimbabwe).

The first film roll contains images of the Blue Mountains; a sea plane, boat docks and military brass and white folks debarking; Victoria Falls with a rainbow from the mist; wildlife (giraffe, antelope, and zebra) filmed from a close proximity; filming from a plane (as a geologist, Sharpstone was interested in the topography of the land and liked to film it from the air): flatlands, river, and mountains; an expanse of lawn by a river (possibly the grounds of the Victoria Falls Hotel); white houses; Africans dancing with a couple of men playing drums; and elephants. This film is shot somewhere along what was called the Khami road to Motopos where Cecil John Rhodes is buried. The people dancing are probably from a nearby kraal. Sometimes tribespeople would wait along the way and perform for money.

content: Footage appears to document a family's life and some large family gatherings but also public events and ceremonies in South Africa. The camera often seems to be placed in a prominent position to record events such as the British royal family's visit to South Africa in 1947.  It appears that the camera person travelled with the tour and documented numerous events along the way including reviewing South African troops. Some of the film footage appears to have been sponsored filming for such companies as Stewarts and Lloyds of South Africa, Ltd, Durban Corporation and Everite. Grave markers include the names: James Francis Bassingthwaighte and Charles John Andersson. There are many public monuments and buildings which would help to identify exact locations but film footage does seem to document many areas of South Africa. Moyer stated at the time of this acquisition that Richard Peck shot the film footage. Other content includes mine dances, caring for livestock, schools, pottery making, tribal peoples and daily life, villages, Zulu war and dance performances, musical instruments, food preparation, farming, train travel, and African wildlife.
