The Sun and Sand chair was launched by Telescope in 1972. The company was founded over 100 years ago and started out making wood folding furniture, cots and directors chairs. Aluminum was introduced into their assortment post WW II. I remember my parents having this chair in orange canvas, it's really a classic. I think I remember it so well as it matched this really cool orange canvas box kite my father had. Mentally, as both were made out of aluminum and canvas, I always thought of them as a set. Now I know this was not the case! I guess it is odd to sell a chair and kite as a set, chair and umbrella and a kite would make much more sense. The chair is really great to go to the park with, bring on a day trip to the beach, keep in the trunk of the car. We live in a 250 sq foot apartment and we manage to store two to use on the roof so, yes, they are practical.
