A Surprise

 

In a private dining room, locked in a display case there was a surprise at Massey College. The Nobel prize presented to John Polanyi  in 1986 for his work in chemistry was there as a sign of the deep feelings he has for the college. There was a lot of reflections but I still wanted to show it.

Well worth displaying. The Nobel Peace Prize won by Pearson is displayed at the foreign ministry, while there are a couple of replicas in museums here.
