The Stalin memorial on the Volga-Don Canal near Stalingrad. Taken in 1952. The statue of Stalin was stolen in 1961 eight years after his death in a night in a cloak-and-dagger operation.

When Stalin saw the memorial, he demanded it be changed, his reason being that he could not greet passing ships with a hat on his head.
