COMMENT THIS PHOTO(1)
Let me just add, that after building short B-43 series of general cargo ships for USSR:

new, much longer B-44 series was also delivered to Black Sea Shipping. Twenty three ships were built by Gdansk Shipyard:
B44/1 MUROM, IMO 6407597, 1963;

B44/2 MOZDOK, IMO 6408888, 1964;

Very interesting article about sinking and salvage of m/s "Mozdok" in 1974 explains lack of many vessel's photos.
