Never-Seen-Before Photos of Stalin-Era USSR
As the USSR was rebuilding after
the devastating effect of WWII, the American Martin Manhoff landed in
Russia with a suitcase full of the latest photography technology – and
importantly, the skills to use it. In 1954, two years since his arrival,
Manhoff was deported from the USSR for alleged spying. After his
expulsion back to the US, the images Manhoff took during his time in
Russia lay hidden in a cupboard for more than six decades. This year,
after Manhoff passed away, these revealing, colorful slides of soviet
life were -re-discovered by historian Douglas Smith.
