content: The following material is taken from a National Cotton Council brochure: "There is something new under the sun this year. Designers have gone to work on an old family friend and have come up with fantastically varied shapes of canvas in brilliant new colors. Now there are awnings, panels, canopies and drapes to match any architectural theme. Formal, free-form, round, arches and cones - all of these shapes (and others) are seen in this film against lush Florida backgrounds. With summer on its way your viewers can see how easy it is to put comfort between them and the sun."
