5. Green “Panorama” Magazine Label: On the right margin, a bright green spine label reads “BOSTON’S OFFICIAL GUIDE MAGAZINE panorama” and notes “New through November 7-1, 1986.” This seems to be a label from a different publication, possibly pasted onto the scrapbook’s binding or page for reference or decoration, and is not directly related to the 1971 clippings.
