Croydon - Celebrity Flies In (1938)

Soundtrack is currently missing for this item. Croydon, London. An aeroplane lands at Croydon airport and the man getting out, a young man with a shy smile, is surrounded by a crowd of well-wishers. He is not recognised by this cataloguer. A policeman stands by, presumably in protection of the man. The plane has ’Daily Express’ written on the side. Note: this may belong to a different issue.
