These photos taken in Suzuki's study and meeting room in the SFZC City Center are all in the Shunryu Suzuki photo archive SR0001 - SR0012 (skipping SR0005)

Photographs of Suzuki-roshi holding some glasses up to his eyes. The glasses belonged to my great-grandmother-the kind of glasses that would have a hinge on the nose piece and in the middle of the ear pieces, so the whole business would collapse to the size of one lens. And then you could push a button and the glasses would spring out. - Yvonne - from this
