Don Bradman in England (1930)

Synopsis

Don Bradman is interviewed in 1930 while on tour in England. He gives a demonstration of various batting techniques.

Curator’s notes

This one on one interview with Don Bradman was probably filmed for a newsreel that would have been screened at the cinema.

Although the camera remains still, the film is used as an effective tool to demonstrate the various batting techniques that Bradman uses.
