Images by Alan ParkinsonThere was the filmstrip.
While sorting out two decades of detritus in the loft this weekend I came across a wooden box full of treasure...
The treasure was in the form of a selection of film strips...
They are mostly published by Common Ground.
Some were in metal tins (vintage, dating back to the 1950s) and others were in plastic pots (and in colour rather than grainy black and white....)
I remember them being used when I was at school - also vaguely remember the tape that came with some of them with the little beep to tell the teacher when to wind on the film... also remember them smoking while they were doing it put perhaps that never happened....
Any other filmstrip memories ?

It was shown so often that groans went up when the first title frames appeared (the teacher never told us in advance what the film was going to be).
Perhaps today that would be called "reinforcing knowledge"... :)
