The top of the front page has a one column heading: "PLAY IS BROADCAST BY VOICE AND ACTING IN RADIO-TELEVISION" with subheads. (see) Article continues inside with related photo. (see)
Complete in 56 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions.  Nice condition.
