Smolensk, Russia photos taken about 1958


A series of photos given to me by a high school friend of mine. B&W and color slides from her dad and grandfather’s travels around the world from the late 40s to about 1958 and a few family photos from the 60s. I could use any feedback from the good folks here on the Flickr-verse to help me identify some land marks and other points of interest and please don’t hesitate to guess on the approximate year where a description of the photo is not given.
