If you click on 'more' it says these are cuts related to this BMC documentary below about the manufacture and export of British motor cars (PM1327).
For the Markets of the World (1962)
"excellent promotional film with lots of great shots of car manufacture and ecstatic voiceover about the greatness of BMC and its exports. Print has pink cast due to colour fading - also tape."
https://www.britishpathe.com/video/for- ... ery/pm1327

Also on You Tube:-
"A history of the British Motor Corporation, at one time the largest auto producer in Great Britain and the fourth-largest in the world."
