I believe this is a marketing film, but obviously long after invention of drywall by US Gypsum in 1916. His technique is good, but not really an all day type installer....to many hits on individual nails. Pros are one-hit wonders in a positive way, not same as certain musicians.

I agree plasterboard is likely, but I'm only familiar with it known as 'button board'. The panel was interspersed with 3/4" holes. Wet plaster would mushroom through for retention. There was a coarse mortar like coat covered with one of basically plaster.
