Stalin "Urban Legends"

[Anne O'Brien Fisher]

Hello SEELANGers,

I came across an anecdote (in Erica Fischer's "Aimee und Jaguar")
describing a small act of resistance against Hitler: in a time
when everyone was supposed to have a portrait or bust of Hitler (or at the
very least a Nazi flag) prominently displayed in their home, one man put
his Hitler portrait under his doormat so he could have the secret pleasure
of knowing that every visitor to his Berlin home was stepping on the
Fuehrer.

Has anyone come across any anecdotes like this (in literature, the press,
orally, etc.) regarding Stalin?

Thank you,

Annie Fisher
