Summary

The aptly named "Sunshine in the Orchard" booklet features a colour drawing of a sunny day in the orchard with wispy clouds and blossoms and a farmer driving a horse drawn orchard plough, the other "sunshine" needed in the orchard. The remainder of the catalogue is monochrome and is filled with comprehensive text and specifications about the products on offer. Artistically laid out, the choice of fonts and styles complements the the inclusion of photographs of working farms and detailed drawings.
The title page is devoted to company self promotion, detailing the many branches, distributors and agencies that can service "all agricultural centres throughout Australia". It includes an invitation to customers to inspect the Sunshine works, "which is the largest manufactory of Farm Implements in the Southern Hemisphere"
