Subject: The tall and short of it
Some dazzling footage of the Golden Gate fair held in SF, shot by a person very much in love with the glowers growing there, as the camera seems to dwell on the flowering plants. On the opposite end, comes huge hulking buildings that we don't know the name of, but I am not complaining as they are monstrous wonders to look at, it's way too bad that fair buildings aren't built like this anymore :(

Shotlist

very nice quality Kodachrome footage of San Francisco WorldÕs Fair, mostly consisting of circular pans from left to right
general shot GM pavilion, pan from left to right, shows famous tower (spire)
VS buildings, pedestrians, gardens, planting and landscaping, boulevards, Asian national pavilions, etc.
[someone should identify particular buildings]
