Scope and Contents
This seventy-third page is titled "A TV Dante Received." Phillips writes "A TV Dante I to III went out 29th July...Very good reviews the following Sunday and many phone calls and messages to say how much people liked it including one from ??? to say he thought it was the best television he'd ever seen...Almost everyone mentions the appearance od David Attenbourgh. I watched it myself with Sylvia or on my own & was often surprised. It gets better as it goes on but will stilll need a coherent sound track. Something somewhere wrong with the voice track. Still even with this delay it is something to have been on at all and over a million people is pretty good." There are five collages of varying size of the head of the young Beatrice on the page. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
