A academic conference on Computers in Number Theory was held in Oxford, England in August 1969.

John Cosgrove writes:

In August 1969 there was a Computers in Number Theory Conference held in Oxford, England. Towards the end a group photograph was taken of most of the participants, and some family members. Was it the day - 21st August - when L. J. Mordell's book on Diophantine Equations was launched, in Jesus College, by Academic Press? Almost everyone bought a signed copy of Mordell's book, and I still have mine (which is how I know the exact date. I suppose most people bought a copy of the photo, and I have carted mine about with me over the years). I note that the photograph was taken by someone from the company Gillman and Soame (presumably of Oxford).
