These delightful photographs were taken at the 38th Pugwash Conference on Science and World Affairs on Global Problems and Common Security, which met in Dagomys, USSR, from 29 August to 3 September 1988. Because of its very high level of hospitality and exceptional organization, The Memorable 38th was described by the participants as an outstanding Pugwash experience.

In these photographs, we were able to identify Joseph Rotblat, Patricia Lindop, B. T. Feld, Maciej Nalecz and Vitalii Goldanskii. In the first photograph, we think the second person from the right might be Maciej Nalecz's wife - are we right?

Do you have any information on this?

Mysterious photograph

Dear all,

 to help you get through the Christmas holidays we decided to post this tricky, yet interesting photograph. Indeed, we have very limited information about it; none of the individuals in the photograph were identified and the event remains unknown. Only the painting of Marx and several writings in Cyrillic alphabet are hinting our research towards the USSR and GDR. Additionally, a similar photograph with Rotblat appearing in it lets us believe the event took place in the 1970s.

Do you have information about the photograph ?

If you do, please leave a comment beneath the blog post or email us at pugwashphotoarchive@gmail.com, quoting 'pht 067'.

Thank you!

If you do, please leave a comment beneath the blog post or email us at pugwashphotoarchive@gmail.com, quoting 'pht 066'.
