| Description: | GAZETTE "New York - WORST BLIZZARD IN LIVING MEMORY - hits American leaving tragic trail of death & damage." New York, United States of America (USA). Very good aerial photography of downtown New York's skyscrapers under the snow. Excellent shot coming over the Empire State Building. Cut to snowbound suburban area. Cars and roads under the snow, and a line of telephone and power lines down in the snow. More shots of snow-clogged roads and cars, and a snow covered car dealership selling new and used cars. "A forcefield of ice" along the coast, being visted by nicely attired ladies including their fur coats, who pick their way over chunks of ice. The Coast Guard had to saw through two feet of ice to free thier small boat from the ice. | |
