Tanks Being Tested (1926)

No title. M/S of car being driven over rough terrain. Intertitle states that this is usually where tanks are tested. The driver takes a woman for a spin across the hilly ground. It is quite silly! A group of men stand around and laugh. An early “four wheel drive“ vehicle I suppose. Although title on Pathe Issue Sheet is “Tanks being tested“ there are no shots of tanks.
