19 minutes. "A National Coal Board film made in 1952 by the Data Film Unit about the exciting new life and challenges within the Mining Industry. 'Plan for Coal' was a Government Strategy Paper outlining the revitalisation of the country's coal mines and production techniques.". Fairly standard chest-thumping film with stirring music and script, and compiled archive sequences rather than new footage. but it's interesting for the breadth of content.

Taken from BFi DVD set "Portrait of a Miner: The National Coal Board Collection Volume One" (seems the only volume BFi issued)

Can't find a copy online.

Rejects:
London buses - I think I've seen the footage before, so might be in our collection already

That’s exactly what it is. Made by the National Cash Register Company, amongst others, these things were still in use when I started to learn about commerce in the 1960s, but were fairly soon overtaken by electronics and the consequent reduction in price of computers and their application to business. The operator fed information to produce, for instance, sales invoices on single sheets on the left of the platen, and the machine would automatically produce the sales ledger on a continuous roll of paper on the right. The ability to produce the ledger data from a single keyboard entry saved time and increased accuracy. More sophisticated versions allowed for automatic data entry from cards with magnetic strips, or punched paper tape for information like name and address files and product descriptions and prices.
