content: Recap of the 1964 "Land of Ours Jubilee" Tupperware convention. The theme of the 1964 Jubilee was "Land of Ours" – a play on the concept of The Wizard of Oz. The recap uses a flashback framing device where a housewife who attended the Jubilee tells her friend about the event as a means to encourage her to become a seller as well. This framing device prompts multiple flashback sequences showing the arrival of the sellers, award and gift ceremonies, dinners, classes and speeches. Former Miss America Anita Bryant performs for the crowd, as do singer Johnny Bryant and magician Blackstone, Jr.
