Lady Godiva Procession in Coventry Trailer (1902)

09 September 1902 Factual 8 mins

This is one of four two-minute extracts from a two to three-hour procession, held to commemorate her legend in Coventry on the afternoon of 9th September 1902, as part of the city's coronation celebrations. The procession starred the fabulously voluptuous and successful London Hippodrome actress Vera Guedes as Godiva. The film begins with a lingering shot of Godiva, in her flesh-coloured dress, on her horse highlighting her significance in the procession. The remaining extracts lose her as a focus, as the procession is used as a vehicle to exhibit local trade.
