Video with title card "Viewpress welcomes Mr M Samuel from Sainsbury's". The video appears to be a demonstration of a system showing advertisements and notices produced with computer graphics (similar to teletext). The video was perhaps intended to promote the system to Mr Samuel as something which could be used in stores to promote products to customers and display important notices. No other references to this system have been found so far in the archive - so there is no evidence that it was actually used in Sainsbury's stores.
The computer generated advertisements includes special offers and notices. The video also includes background music. Two television commercials are also included within the video, perhaps to show that videos could also be included on the system: "Naturally British from Sainsbury's" (0:2:40); Cod & Prawn Pie with Grapes commercial (0:5:40).
Duration: 9 minutes 30 seconds (in-vision timecode continues for longer).
