Linus Pauling often wore a beret. With this artistic headgear, he demonstrated his radical standpoint during the Cold War in the USA. After the atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, the chemist Pauling engaged in the fight against nuclear weapons. His activism led to accusations of communist sympathies, and his passport was revoked.
The beret was presented to the Nobel Prize Museum by Linda Pauling Kamb in 2000. - Location
