I might have captioned this "the smoking section", were it not for the fact that everywhere in the universe was a smoking section in the 1980s.

Satellite after-shave cream, sold for 75 kopeks in the hotel lobby.

This was a more successful retail experience than our visit to GUM department store, which had a good selection of lambs-wool chapkas and some very uncomfortable-looking wired bras, but not very much else.

Summer 1975. Moscow (?. Could be Kiev).

Today marks the end of the 8th day of the USSR occupying Turkey. The soldiers celebrate with festive dances and acts of peace. The USSR invites our new neighbor Italy to join us in our celebration under the flag of peace on this day offering him our hospitality and an official act of peace.

'Top Hat' germanium transistor from the early 1960s.

The Soviet semiconductor industry started in 1947 with point contact germanium diodes for detectors in radar systems. These were based on German devices. The USSR further developed its industry through a combination of internal innovation and development, and reverse engineering of Western products.

The above transistor, a P422 was part of a series of high frequency devices. The manufacturer is unknown. It is sitting on a photo of the internals of a SELGA 7 transistor radio which was made in the Riga Radio Rupnica Factory in Latvia in the early 1960s. A similar transistor can be seen with an orange mark to the left, (artistic blurring to the photo :-).

This works - germanium PNP, hfe (gain) = 51, Vf=298mV.
