Homes In Unknown Location in Russia

Exterior view of what appears to be the back side of houses or dwellings in an unknown location. According to Charles Thayer's curriculum vitae: "In 1955 I made an extended tour of European and Asiatic Russia and wrote a series for the Saturday Evening Post on post-Stalinist Soviet Union." Although not identified, it is believed that this photograph may have been taken during that trip.
