Children Blowing Bubbles

Soapy fun for the Passmore children in this fascinating, very early home movie

Margaret, Mavis and Brian Passmore enjoy the simple delights of some soapy bubble-blowing under the watchful eye of their mother Annie. This wonderful, very early amateur film was probably taken in the garden of their home in Streatham.

The film is one of a collection of 15 home movies, mostly shot by Alfred Ernest Passmore (1867-1948) of his family at home and on holiday between 1902 and 1903.
