| Description: | 'SKYLARKS" - A Study in HIGH LIFE'. Men who work on high buildings in Rome, London and New York. Various shots of the Coliseum in Rome, Italy as we see men cleaning the building and clearing bird nests from the arches. At London's Crystal Palace we see men climbing up the glass roof windows to clean them. In New York, United States of America, we see various shots of electrical engineers climbing and walking about the girders of skyscrapers under construction (yikes!). Men sit on high girders to eat their lunch. View of nearby buildings shows three airships floating by. The men are seen sliding down the vertical girders to go home. | |
