Deze opnamen zijn gemaakt door P.H. Mullaard en gevonden als losse film op een rol. Het zijn mogelijk proef-opnamen of prive-opnamen maar vooralsnog onduidelijk waar het is. Het filmmateriaal is bij Filmcollectief terechtgekomen dankzij Thys Ockersen en na een lange weg van vele zolders uiteindelijk gedigitaliseerd. Er zit tevens restmateriaal bij van de film " Palingvissen met de lijn op het IJsselmeer". Deze filmbeelden zijn gemaakt door P.H. Mullaard die het bedrijf Vision Filmproducties BV had.
