Photos from 1980 Soviet Union

Collection of Photos

My father went on a class trip from his middle school in the UK to the Soviet Union in 1980.

The photos displayed below are from Moscow, Russia.

Soviet propaganda can be seen in all three images (the focus on peace, Lenin, and pride of Communism).

Students gathered in front of a banner that says "Peace to the World"
