When Ideal Films wanted to film part of its 1922 classic "The Grass Orphan" from a moving vehicle they borrowed this Goodyear van with pneumatic tyres.
"In such work excessive vibration would be ruinous to the picture," said the press release that came with the photo. "But it was found that the big pneumatic tyres enabled a very satisfactory result to be obtained." While I see where they are coming from here, personally I think it would have made more sense to have rented a truck with air suspension.
In case you were interested this "moral melodrama" starred Margaret Bannerman and Reginald Owen - and the basic plot involved the St.John family inheriting some money from an unknown uncle.
