Julie (& Society):
Last week I endorsed the AP Photo Archive when list-serve subscriber asked
for experiences with the database. Your query is a wonderful example of its
usefulness. If Northwestern subscribes, you need only put in "Soviet" and
"Statue" (and I'd repeat the search with "monument" and a few other terms).
The image for Aug. 23, 1991 of statue of Lenin being toppled came up almost
immediately. There are many, many more.
