Produced by the Dallas-based Bill Stokes Associates, this 1970s television commercial promotes the Xerox Color Copier. Arguing that the world is too colorful a place to only use black and white, the advertisement shows a child using the machine to copy his colorful drawings.

Formed in 1965, Bill Stokes Associates (later to be known as the Stokes group) was a Dallas-based production company that made industrial and promotional films for a range of clients spanning from Mary Kay Cosmetics to the United States Navy. In 1966, Bill Stokes Associates provided sound stage and production services for the 1967 film Bonnie and Clyde. Bill Stokes has been honored by the Dallas Producers Association with a Film Pioneer Award.
