How films are made: Snow Scene (colour litho)

Snow Scene. This scene was actually built upon the same stage as that upon which the "Rome Express" Engine, illustrated on card No 9, was built, and is an example of the many different scenes that can be made in the modern film studio. The "snow" is composed chiefly of a mixture of naphtha and salt, which is almost the same as crushed moth balls. This substance has been found not only to look realistic, but to make the correct "crunchy" sound when walked upon. The illustration is of a scene from the film, "Turkey Time." Illustration for one of a set of cigarette cards on the subject of How Films are Made, issued by B Morris in 1934.
