Title says it all. Hope this is of interest to someone.

clip 1 Not sure if this is a Holt.

clip 2

clip 3

clip 4 This is probably the best one.

Clip 1 is a Holt 5 Ton Artillery Tractor (or maybe 10 Ton). The little tractor in clip 4 is a Holt 12hp.

 

The lady's skirt in clip 3 looks uncomfortably close to the revolving tracks.

I agree,  one can wonder if had the film continued would we have seen her flopping along behind the track ?

The last two short are unique.  Number 3 depicts another Holt 75 with French and what appears to be a Brit sailor tekking along with the vehicle.  I suspect it is Macedonia.   The last short shows a Holt 120 ( six cylinder ).  Thanks, Tadpole.
