“The Roll of Drum’s”, “Presented by Caterpillar Tractor Co.”, “Produced in cooperation with The National Safety Council”, Eastman Color? Red Fade

“A safety film for those who work with heavy construction machinery. Includes re-enactments of accidents caused by carelessness”

“The film in question is The Roll of Drums a 20 minute film produced by Caterpillar in 1964. The grainy quality video compares stunts performed by professional entertainers in a circus or fair to the daily risks taken on construction sites with heavy equipment and considering its age and the lack of anything remotely like CGI in those days, there is some pretty dramatic footage.”
