Durrance Film. A 1955 film titled "Ski Time In Aspen". Begins with a ski race with Gale "Spider" Spence on the course, then proceeds to tell the story about Aspen with a subplot of young people meeting on a ski vacation. Evie Jacoby, one of the "stars" of the film, comes to Aspen via plane. There are scenes of the town of Aspen and people ready for skiing. Ms. Jacoby rides the Lift One and Lift Two up Aspen Mountain, where she meets Tom Carter, "star" number two of the film at the Sundeck. From this point on, the couple will be seen intermittently. Scenes of Aspen Mountain include locals such as Red Rowland, Hal Hartman, and Jack de Pagter, who is seen unloading restaurant milk cans off the chair lift. Also, members of the Junior Ski Team can be seen ski jumping. Frank Willoughby tells about the town of Aspen. Included in this are personalities such as Adolph Barrailler and Walter Paepcke. Aspen school children are also shown skiing on Little Nell and riding the T-bar. There are Wintersköl scenes and some of the Hotel Jerome and Mario's, popular Aspen night spots.
