Summary
Pathe synopsis: From the proud but simple cups of competition to the exquisite treasure of the Mansion House - that great monument to London’s history and pageantry...a collection of gold and silver plate cups and ceremonial swords that are today priceless. The collection is matched only by the dignity and splendour of ceremonial occasions, like this. For the Lord Mayor, Sir Cuthbert Ackroyd, establishes the precedent by acting as host for a Fashion Show, a display of day and evening clothes in wool, designed by Britain’s leading fashion designers.
