label: Summary

content: Percy B. Eckhart was a lawyer, a prolific oil painter, and a supporter of the arts. Most of the film footage in this collection is of travel, but there is also film footage of his family, and of a fiction film.

label: Biographical Note

content:
Percy Bernard Eckhart was born in 1877 in Lake Forest, Illinois. He received his bachelor's degree from the University of Chicago and his law degree from Harvard University. He taught public utility law at the University of Chicago and was a founding partner in the law firm of Eckhart, McSwain, Hassell, and Husum. He also served as legal counsel for the Art Institute of Chicago. His support of the arts included serving as a trustee of the Art Institute of Chicago, a founder of the Ravinia Festival association, and a governing member of the Chicago Symphony Orchestral association. He additionally served as director and officer of the B. A. Eckhart Milling company, a firm started by his late father; as a member of the executive committee of Montgomery Ward & Co; as a director of Chicago Title & Trust company, and the Champlain Oil & Refining company; and as president of the DeSoto Securities company, DeSoto Realty Trust, and the 208 La Salle Street corporation. In 1951, he received Northwestern University's centennial award. In his spare time, he was also a prolific oil painter (primarily of landscapes, some of which were exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago in the 1920s). Eckhart died in 1969 in Lake Placid, New York.

content: 23 Film reels (14,300 feet, 16mm)

label: Physical Characteristics and Technical Requirements

content:
Physical condition of the film ranges from fine to severely deteriorated; all film is acetate and vinegar syndrome has affected the reels to varying degrees.

In 2015, the donor sent the films to Click Scan Share in Lafayette, California, for transfer to DVDs. Copies of the DVDs are available for reference. Image is often jittery and exhibits "breathing" and some was transferred on wrong orientation (writing is projected backwards). DVD includes no titles or breaks between separate rolls, though DVD chapter breaks do correspond correctly to the order of rolls provided by the lab (these divisions can be accessed with the "skip" function).

label: Arrangement

content: This collection is arranged in 3 series: (1) Travel Footage, 1926-1936, 1949-1950; (2) Home Movies, 1925-1932, 1947; (3) Miscellaneous Film Footage, 1954

content:
Film arrived in small rolls and was assembled into larger film rolls between 800 feet and 1000 feet when possible. Film rolls that were in particularly poor physical condition were kept separate for handling purposes. All film footage is estimated, as the rolls could not be run through a film footage calculator due to shrinkage.

Film was assembled in original numbered order whenever possible. Numbered films proceed largely chronologically by subject. Information written on each film reel and/or can appears in bulleted lists on the following pages. Reels tended to come in their own cans, with the exception of a few larger cans that housed multiple film rolls. Square brackets indicate titles supplied by archives staff.

Most film is black-and-white. Note that one roll (2017.5.3-3 [Percy B. Eckhart Travel Footage: Virginia Gardens, 1932]) is Kodacolor, a film format that contains color information in a lenticular format. This film footage appears black and white until projected through the required filters. There is also tinted film in 2017.5.7 [Percy B. Eckhart Travel Footage: World Cruise, 1936], and Kodachrome in 2017.5.6 [Percy B. Eckhart Travel Footage: Europe, 1949-1950].

Field notes, shot logs, translations, and preservation worksheets relating to the Unedited Film and Video Projects
found in Series 1. Series also includes screening and editing notes, and audio and sync
sound logs. Most of the shot logs are also available in searchable, electronic text
documents. Translations and transcriptions are available onsite.

These materials were created between 1951 and 2000 by a variety of people, including
Lorna Marshall, John Marshall, Timothy Asch, and numerous editors and assistants. Most
shot logs were kept in binders. The earliest of these are hand-written; later logs are typed
or computer print-outs, often with additional hand-written notes. Additionally, there are worksheets created by John Bishop ca. 1983 when he was contracted by the HSFA to prepare the film outtakes for preservation.  These worksheets (film condition report, film repair log and catalog information) were often stapled to copies of shot logs creating unique paper documentation of the collection. Records are organized
chronologically by expedition or film/video project.

content:
Film footage was shot in Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and possibly Kenya. Includes dupes of 2000.6.1-7 and 2000.6.1-4.

The first film roll includes a sea plane landing, white men in uniform debarking a boat followed by other white western men and women; the Zambezi River, Victoria Falls, a western woman at the edge drawing, and a rainbow in mist; a giraffe, zebra and other African wildlife; an aerial view of Victoria Falls, flat lands, and the Blue Mountains; the grounds of Victoria Falls Hotel; mountains (possiblty the Rwenzori Mountains) shrouded in clouds at the summit; and elephants and other African wildlife. It may have been on this trip that David Sharpstone was chased by an enraged bull elephant but was saved when Ramah Sharpstone drove the jeep out to meet him.

The second film roll includes the Zambezi River; cars stopped along a road waiting for a ferry barge being poled across the river (a license plate is reversed- the film is flipped); Ramah, a passenger in the lead car, talking to a policeman; the cars leaving the ferry; a building under construction with Ramah, two of Sharpstone's friends, and a young black man posing in front; the Sharpstones and their friends exiting another ferry; travelling along a dirt road; Ramah pulling something out of a hillock; a high waterfall, landscapes, and a stream; two African men posing, then four men, and then two men with one African woman (they may be Masai).
