Budapest, 1986. Speaking of interesting times, the late 1980’s was certainly one such period. Here President Gorbachev is visiting downtown Budapest in a time of unprecedented change. He is accompanied by his wife, Raisa, who is having her hand held by János Kádár’s wife, Maria. Kádár, on the right, has time for a cigarette. Interpreters hover around the Gorbachev’s, but not the Kádárs whom speak Russian.

1960. Somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. One for the history buffs. Hungarian leader János Kádár playing shuffleboard on the Soviet passenger liner Balitka on his way to the US for the XVth session of the UN General Assembly. That's Nikta Khrushchev on the right, and possibly, Alexei Kosygin of the left.
