I showed small cards, most likely a test print or not very good photos. Now, the hands have reached those photos that were printed in large format - this means that the author appreciated what happened

I will continue to show old photos from the archive. Already started to show them, but was distracted by polar bears. I’ll say right away that I don’t know where the photos were taken, but I’ll be happy

That's all, came to the end of the photo from the archive about polar bears, there are four cards left. Honestly, I sorted the photos, so they go a bit mixed up. The first photo of a bear that eats on

Two portions of photos about polar bears have already been, it is time for the third part. As always, not only about bears - people are always in the spotlight too: Who is swimming in the water? Signature

As planned once a week I will show old photos, this time I will continue about bears. To begin with household photos. Wintering type with platea I quote the signature from the back side. Where is it? Maybe

As I wrote in the photo archive many unsigned photos, moreover, many are not in batches, but in bulk, so it is difficult to establish where they were taken. This time there will be not only about the city,

In the photo archive there are not only photos of my grandmother, but also photos of not clear origin. She has never been to the far north, where polar bears are found and, unfortunately, I haven't any

In the photo archive, which I digitize, there are not only photographs, but also photo postcards. And also not only Petersburg,many German-Swiss. Sometimes it is possible to understand by the inscriptions

Some more photos of small size. This time from Petersburg and suburbs. How I like these miniatures! Let's dive into the past ... I will not say where it is exactly, but obviously the Neva, shooting from

These photos, most likely, samplers, some I met in large format. Most of the photographs that I will show were not taken in Petersburg, but this is not accurate. Unfortunately, very little information

I didn't publish photos for a long time because didn't scan it but now I want to continue this. Do you interesting? View of the university. I don't know exactly where it is.

For a long time I did not post anything, and in the meantime the summer began. Fence of the Summer Garden

Winter is rapidly ending, but this is no reason to forget how it is beautiful in winter. This photos is how St. Isaac's Cathedral looked like in the distant 60's. Such rime is very rare. Perhaps it is

These photos are not from the photo archive, but they are painfully good for contrasting with the previous post. They are made on my walk along the ice of the river. In a good frosty weather, a large number

Neva passes in the very center of St. Petersburg and is one of the most important sights of the city. The Neva embankments are a wonderful place for walking and photographing. In this post I will show

In St. Petersburg many different monuments with animals. Some of the most famous and numerous lions, but we also love sphinxes. These old photographs show snow sculptures from the city center. Among them

For those who often happen in St. Petersburg, these photos seem unusual because of the lack of people. Beautiful as it is now, but where is everyone? Now at any time people in the subway (metro) more.

I posted author's photos. And I'll post it again. Recently I got postcards with photos. Both postcards and photographs with views of the city are interesting. Postcards or open letters, as they are written,

In the archive there were not only author's photographs, but also postcards with photographs. Several postcards are especially interesting, since they were not made in Russia. One postcard from Finland

I already showed pictures from Pushkin (here, here and here). Here are a few more pieces made at the same time (60s). Marble Bridge in Catherine Park. Now the passage on it is closed. Cameron's gallery.
