Unedited newsreel rushes from the longshoremen's strike

Raw, unedited newsreel material of the 1934 longshoremen's strike, held by the commercial stock library Footage Farm and posted as a research document. Unlike cut newsreels, this preserves the camera takes as shot on the waterfront. The San Francisco Film and Photo League's own strike footage was destroyed in the vigilante raids of 17 July 1934, which makes surviving rushes unusually valuable.
