Measures approx. 6" x 5", printed on semi-gloss photo paper. The photo presents a group of highly decorated officers accompanied by a group of women. Looking at the transitional M43 uniforms (the ones without shoulder boards), the time must be the summer of 1943, just after the uniform change. The handwritten inscription on the verso reads the following: "Radio meeting broadcast to Ukraine, 1943, Moscow. Speakers: Secretary of the Central Committee of the LKSMU (Russian abbreviation for Lenin's Komsomol of Ukraine) M. Pidtychenko (second from the left); partisans: Hero of the Soviet Uni

Shashlo (rightmost on the photo), and women Komsomol members, underground resistance fighters."

In good condition. There is a partial rip near the upper right-hand corner, a bump to the right edge towards the bottom, and a small missing piece to the left edge. There is also an area of warped emulsion above the head of the leftmost officer, but it becomes visible only when tilting the photo to reflect a bright light.

Please note that the penny in our photo is for size reference.
