content: Announcer John Cannon narrates the happenings at the 1960 Tupperware Home Parties Jubilee convention, which took place at Utah State University in Logan, Utah. The film captures snippets of speeches, lectures, and the presentation of awards to Tupperware home sellers, intermingled with space-themed costume events and performances. The space theme is at is most pronounced during the second night, which features an elaborate planetary-themed performance and gift presentation. Another significant moment in the film includes a group painting project that resulted in a portrait of First Lady Mamie Eisenhower. Among the special guests at the Jubilee are actress Barbara Britton and ventriloquist Edgar Bergen.
