Kippers

Year: 1952

A young man returns home, starving, and sits down at the table with his family to enjoy a meal of kippers. The images next relate the origin of these herrings, from being first fished in the North Sea, to preparation at the factory, where the fish are cleaned, cut, gutted, salted and smoked for a whole night. Once packed, Aberdeen kippers go around the world!
