Harry & Gleda Original #239

This reel contains six sections of unedited camera original footage. The first three sections of this reel are identical to Gleda & Harry Orig Rev (F.2010-01-0215). The fourth section of the film is similar to the first, and is footage of Mort and Millie’s son Harry drawing with a pencil. The camera focuses on Harry’s face in close-up as he concentrates on his drawing. It moves down to show his drawing, which appears to be an illustration of a figure, an arrow, and a snake. The camera moves back up to frame Harry’s face as he continues to work on his drawing. He smiles and talks to the person filming, looking once toward the camera at the end of the section.;The fourth section was shot before the fifth section, which shows Harry’s face in close-up with his pencil. The camera moves down and we see his hand as he begins to draw a figure that appears to be a cowboy. The sixth section is a continuation of the fifth and begins with the camera focused on the drawing of the cowboy. Harry adds details to his outfit and face, including a gun and mustache, cacti, and a drawing of the sun. This reel is related to Gleda & Harry Orig Rev (F.2010-01-0215), Gleda and Harry Drawing Together Orig (F.2010-01-0104), and Harry & Gleda Work Print #211 (F.2010-01-0280).
