It is possible that the photographs included here for L'Abbaye de Royaumont may include more than one meeting. The reason for this suspicion is that J. Lederberg appears ghostly thin (similar to the photographs of him while he was in Japan in 1962), as well as a rather obese J. Lederberg (such as appears in the 1950's in the Cold Spring Harbor photographs). Examples of this follow:
Thin
iii, v, xxi, xxiii
Obese
vi, ix, x, xi, xii, xiii, xiv, xxvi, xxviii
Note: Royaumont I (1958), Royaumont II (1959). Photographs taken during the Nobel Prize ceremony in 1958 depict an obese J. Lederberg, while photographs taken in Japan circa 1960 depict a thin J. Lederberg.
