Default Hallicrafter's Tour on Film

Anybody notice any audio-video sync problems in the MP4
version? I tried two different players and the track was
way off.

I'm going to download the MPeg2 version and see how that plays...

I found a tour of the Hallicrafter's plant on line.
This is a WW-2 propaganda film, dated 1944 and titled "Voice
of Victory". In two parts at http://www.archive.org
It has considerable detail on the construction of the
BC-610 and shows some other products in somewhat less
detail.

How can you tell? From what I remembered and a quick review, the only
place there could be synchronized sound is at the begining with the
ham who was later identifed as the chief engineer of Halicrafters
(Samuelson) "on the air" and the speech at the end of the second part
by the head of the Signal Corps.

They were both fine with my playing them using QuickTime player and VLC
under MacOS.

Looks like their letterhead circa 1945.

Sure does look like a letterhead although letterheads
usually also have phone numbers and cable addresses on them.
There is a copyright notice below the word "radio"
indicating 1945 and the pictures feature the mobile radio
station from the movie (forgot the SCR number) with an E for
Efficiency banner, also the SX-28, probably the best known H
product of the time.
I wonder what the original source was.
