Where did this image from the first Nation of Ulysses 7" come from?

What is the source of this image, of a woman with a wrench, that was used as the cover for the first Nation of Ulysses 7"? It might be from some Soviet art, it might not. Ian Sevonius says he doesn't remember where he got it, so I hope someone else will recognize it.
Is it bad form for me to drop in to say I don't know, but it is one of my favourite 7"s?
In any case, I think you're probably on the right lines - it looks like a collage, so would fit in with their use of constructivist imagery. Their second 7" cover was more obviously taken from Rodchenko (I think? If not him one of his colleagues).

There goes my idea. Count me among the interested in how this resolves.

Have you tried using the Google reverse image search?
Alas, it doesn't work on my crippled IE7 office PC or I would try now.
