Third Part of the Photo and Video Archive of the American Attache in the USSR Published

The photographs and videos from Martin Manhoff's archive were taken between 1952 and 1954. They include pictures from Moscow, Leningrad, Murmansk, Yalta, and other cities.

Radio Liberty published the third part of the archive of the former US attache in the USSR Martin Manhoff. The archive includes color photographs and videos from the 1950s. It was discovered in late January: American historian Douglas Smith said that he was asked to visit the home of the former diplomat after his wife died to see if there was anything of value that he had left behind.

The photos and videos that he found were soon published on the Internet: in early March, the first batch of materials was posted (including color footage from Stalin’s funeral), in late March — the second batch. Further materials are planned to be published shortly.
