The Soviet Archives (including graphic images) can be accessed at:
ftp seq1.loc.gov
For English versions: cd pub/soviet-archive/text.english
There is a readme file in the soviet.archive directory {above, that
hyphen in soviet.archive should be a period}.

The exhibit "Revelations from the Russian archives" had an ftp site
that allowed retrieval of selected portions of the documents contained
in the exhibit. I don't know if the site is still active but here's
the instructions:
FTP to seq1.loc.gov
USERID: anonymous
PASSWORD: anything or your address
CD pub
Cd soviet.archive
get README
The README file has the index list of the documents.

Subject: RE: Russian Archives Exhibit access
This message is intended for users having difficulty
transferring the Russian archive files. We have had a few asking
questions about the instructions. Some will be repetition of the
previous message.
FTP to seq1.loc.gov
USER: anonymous
PASSWORD: your name or anything else
cd pub
cd soviet.archive
get README
cd text.english
get filename
NOTE: The README (all caps) file contains a list of documents
available. To transfer any particular document, change directory to
text.english (if you want the English text) or images.gif (if you
want the image file of the original Russian). Then continue to use
the command get with the filename you wish to retrieve.
