1500s: Man in period costume reading at desk. Man unrolls map.
England 1500s (dramatized, filmed 1950s-1960s): A man in Elizabethan period costume with white beard and skullcap sits at a wooden drafting table reading a small book, with rolled maps and scrolls arranged nearby. A film slate marked "Elizabethan 83 II" appears at the start of the scene as a hand holds it up for the camera. The man later stands and unrolls a large map or chart across the table, examining it closely with drafting instruments in hand.
