What "gets" me is how relatively late in the game so many of the Western Europe countries got color TV...I mean, it wasn't like it was some big state secret or unknown technology we were trying to hide from everybody else.. Australia could possibly be excused for the lower population there...But Italy ? Prosperous, well-educated country, no shortage of engineers/scientists, good infrastructure...Decent electronics industry...Looks like the populace would have been raising hell to get it. Lots of Italians in America, surely some of their "old country" cousins came over here & saw it 1st hand for themselves...
