Pugwash members in front on the United Baptist Church



 In this photograph, possibly dated in the 1970s, we were able to identify part of the location, namely, United Baptist Church, which indicates the event is most likely taking place in a North-American country.
Additionally, in the same event we identified these four men next to C.S Eaton and Prof. E. Rabinowitch.

Do you have any information about the people involved or the nature of the event?

日本からこんにちは!Hello from Japan!






The first two monochrome photographs show Joseph Rotblat in Japan, possibly Kamakura in Kanagawa Prefecture as seen from the Daibutsu statue on the left. We are able to identify Rotblat with Professor Iwao Ogawa, who was among the 21 scientists participating in the first Pugwash Conference in 1957. We think this photo was taken in 1957 when Rotblat was invited by Hideki Yukawa to a radiology conference in Tokyo.  

Can you identify the woman in the first set of photos on the right?

In the next two coloured photographs, Rotblat is seen again in Kamakura with Ogawa. We think this was a personal visit sometime in the 1970s.

When do you think these photos were taken, and for what purposes?

If you have any information, please email us at pugwashphotoarhive@gmail.com and quote 'Early Pugwash in Japan', or leave a comment below. 

Thank you!
