The sword of Stalingrad was presented to Stalin and the Soviet people by Churchill in 1943. This picture shows the final assembly of the sword:

Stalin kisses the sword
(After the kiss, perhaps because the sword was so excited(...), the sword fell on the floor):

The sword presented to Roosevelt for a close look:

And FDR hoist it in the air:

Now, where is the sword today? is it in Volgograd at Mamayev Kurgan? Do you have color picture of the sword?
