Overview
Two children – a girl and a boy - are delighted to be filmed with their two, large, happy-to-be-stroked and newly-acquired white rabbits. The long-eared pets appear to have the freedom of a walled garden area but a hutch has also been provided for their comfort. A smiling mother and an involved father complete the picture. This is home movie material shot by Jack Clark who set up a photography shop and studio in Brecon in 1905 (now a toy shop but still run by the Clark family).
