16mm film: FOSSILS...Clues To Prehistoric Times...1958Excellent Kodachrome Color and Great Content!
Fossils…Clues to Prehistoric Times: Coronet, 1960, 400 feet in length, excellent Kodachrome color, good condition (except NMT and missing the first few seconds of footage). A good look at what a fossil is, how they form, where they are found and how they are recovered. One of the more interesting parts of the film shows dinosaur fossils being assembled into a complete skeleton. There is also a segment about how scientists reconstruct the flesh and skin to give a clear picture of what various animals actually looked like. Some other highlights include: An overview of how skeletons become fossilized; a look at petrified wood; a segment about some of the types of areas fossils can be found; scenes of scientists searching for fossils; a segment which shows a fossil being chipped out of rock, cleaned off, and packed for shipping; a look at some animals that are almost the same now as they were millions of years ago; a look at some excellent imprint fossils of a sea scorpion and a fish; an impeccable example of a prehistoric insect preserved in amber; a segment about animal fossils that have been removed from tar pits; an overview of how the age of particular fossils can be identified based on the layer of the Earth they came from; and a segment about animals such as the giant sloth and woolly mammoth, where actual preserved specimens have been found. Buyer pays $4.00 for shipping. Foreign buyers, please inquire about shipping cost. Thanks for looking! | ||||||||||||
