1972 Press Photo Peasant woman hitchhiking along Highway 10 in Russia

This is Highway 10, Russia's showcase auto route linking Moscow and Leningrad, her two largest cities. The hitchhiker is a peasant woman off to market with her bundles of fruit and vegetables. Hitchhiking along the 400-mile, two lane road is easy for Soviet citizens. Nine out of ten drivers stop when waved down. But if you're a tourist, forget it. The police don't look kindly on tourists chatting freely with ordinary Russians.

Photo is dated 1972.

Photo measures 11.25 x 8.25 inches.
