Handwritten on the back, "Dulles doodling while Gromyko spoke- Reed." Photo shows John Foster Dulles, US Ambassador and principle architect of the Japanese Peace Treaty, listening to the inflammatory speech of the Russian delegate Andrei Gromyko. Dulles is wearing a pair of the translation earphones and he appears to be writing on a tablet sitting in his lap with a pencil. Several other people sitting around him are also wearing the earphones.
