One photo (18 x 12.7cm) from AGIP/ Robert Cohen shows him under police guard; two from Keystone (17.7 x 12.6cm and 19.8 x 15.1cm) show him at a press conference in civilian clothes and with his wife Elizabeth Burgos; one photo from United Press Photographs (25.5 x 19.2cm) shows Debray in striped prisoner's fatigues emblazoned with the initials "P.B."
