From a post by "aeon" at Human Biodiversity Forum. Original image source "a guidebook published in 1970 by the Research Institute of the Soviet Interior Ministry," with captions presumably translated by "aeon."
In the Shoutbox, Leon and others expressed interest in an ethnic guide to Soviet criminals which looks to have been a condensed version of the following gallery. Exhaustive neither in its ethnic coverage nor in its representation of intra-ethnic variation, it's nonetheless a good portrayal of morphological diversity within the USSR.
