1960s-1970s Subbotnik

In Soviet time, everybody had from time to time to do subbotniks. It was like that: on your free day, most often on Saturday (subbota) around 22nd of April (Lenin's birthday), you popped up at your working place, took a spade or a broom or a rack or whatever and went tidying "the territory" (patch of land either belonging to or just neighbouring your organization). You couldn't skip the thing, it was a minor political affront to ignore a subbotnik. Here you see three office workers toiling away at some early 60s subbotnik.

My maternal Grandmother's step-mother Marya with a relative of hers.
The most interesting fact about Marya Andreevna was that she never learnt to read. She couldn't read a word till the end of her life.
Москвичам будет интересно: это "утюг" в Петропавловском переулке. Видна колокольня церкви Петра и Павла, на которой тогда не было купола. Оцените, как эффектно вырисовывается на фоне высотка на Котельнической набережной.
