Notes
The black and white prints of RFE/RL were donated to OSA by the Hoover Institute, California in year 2015. The images are duplicates of those held at Hoover. The originals, and most probably the negatives are with the donor as well. OSA only received the paper prints with captions, and digitized the entire collection in year 2018.

Contents Summary
A rather empty very high-ceiling hall. There is a row of small windows high up in the walls. There are glass doors on two sides of the hall as well as two fire extinguishers, and wall mounted lamps. There is an unmanned small desk by the left hand side wall. By the far end wall there is an alcove with a metal counter behind which a man is sitting. Above him there is a clock. The walls are tiled. The space has an art deco touch.
