The neighbor Fedir Soloviov is at the wheel, Kostiantyn Mykhailovych's wife - Kremenchutska Yevdokiia Ivanivnaa - carries apples.
"In general, Kostiantyn Mykhailovych, as a disabled veteran, often changed vehicles. First, he had a car "Pobieda*" ("Victory" - eng.) for a while, then a motorcycle, a sidecar and finally "Zaporozhtsi**"".
Kateryna Filonova's comment.
The motorcycle of Kremenchutskyi Kostiantyn Mykhailovych (1919-1984). The photos were taken mainly in the courtyard (15 3rd International St) by his nephew Vasyl Lezhepokov. Most of the family photographs of the second half of the 50s and all 60s were made exactly by him.
*Pobieda — a passenger car produced in the Soviet Union by GAZ (Gorky Automobile Plant) from 1946 until 1958.
**Zaporozhets — a series of rear-wheel-drive superminis (city cars in their first generation) designed and built from 1958 at the ZAZ (Zaporizhzhia Automobile Building Plant) factory in Soviet Ukraine. The name Zaporozhets translates into a Cossack of the Zaporizhian Sich or а man from Zaporizhzhia.
