| David’s passports are a study in themselves. Many stamps are incomplete and superimposed, thus difficult to read. The earliest of David’s passports record his travels during 1960-68, during which time he danced with Festival Ballet. Leila Kovacevič (who joined the National Ballet in 1957) has added the performances in 1963. You can see the PDF here. | |
