At the bottom of that page are a couple of contemporary articles on colour television, the earliest being from "Picture Post" in March 1954.

Unfortunately, the resolution is too low, and so you can't read the text, which is disappointing. Also the other pages of that 4 page pull out supplement are not shown.

I have a copy of that supplement, and I've attached pictures of it here. The fourth page is just an advert, and so it is more a 3 page supplement than 4 pages (which they call it on the first page).

As the maximum resolution here also makes the text unreadable, I have attached zoomed in photos of the text too.
