Honey Extracting - Processing

Item is a silent, colour film featuring the processing of honey from its transport by truck to the Bee Cee Honey plant through to canning and labelling by factory workers on assembly lines. School children and girl guides are shown entering the plant for tours. The Bee Cee Honey plant building includes a "Hodgson's Bee Supplies Ltd." sign suggesting it may have been filmed in New Westminster, BC, where Hodgson's was based at the time. One of the transport trucks shown in the film bears the slogan, "Another Load of Silverbow Honey." Silverbow is a Washington state-based honey company.
