Searching for film: "Dubuque at War"



Greetings,

My apologies for cross-posting. I am posting this
request on behalf of a patron; please email him
directly at dschmit@wcinet.com if you are able to
assist.

We are trying to locate a copy of the film, "Dubuque
at War," produced in March 1943 by Realife Motion
Pictures. Producers: Bob and Kay Allen. Photographer:
W.A. Clayton. It appears that this title may have been
part of a series of similarly-themed films produced
for the U.S. Dept. of War during World War II. Earlier
in 1943 a similar film was produced in nearby Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, chronicling local wartime support
efforts.

The patron has already checked with the National
Archives, the Library of Congress, the State
Historical Society of Iowa, Iowa State University's
American Archives of the Factual Film, as well as with
historical societies in Cedar Rapids and Dubuque, to
no avail. We also did a film title search on WorldCat
and turned up nothing.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated; thank you.
