| Evidence: | Pardon a word of unsolicited criticism about your venture. I think the contents are pretty creditable, but I think that the material presentation leaves something to be desired. The page is not good, and the type is entirely without distinction. . . . Taken as a whole, the mere look of the review is extremely disappointing—even to the sinister colour of the cover. |
