A War Balloon and Transport Crossing the Vaal River (1900)

A War Balloon and Transport Crossing the Vaal River poster

A War Balloon and Transport Crossing the Vaal River (1900)

Overview

Shot just a few days after the relief of Mafeking, this film captures the progress of British military personnel across the Vaal River in South Africa during the Boer War. Fording the river takes time, with so many ox- and mule-drawn wagons and an unwieldy observation balloon to boot. This footage was shot by London-born Joseph Rosenthal for the Warwick Trading Company - one of many films he made during the conflict.
