Questions & Comments
Very unique and probably difficult to locate an item like this. This was just prior to the Russian Revolution in 1917 when the Bolsheviks assassinated Czar Nicholas II. his wife, the Czarina Alexandra, their four daughters, and their son, who was the czarevitch, that is, the son would become the next Czar. I am going to bid on this, can't let this part of Russian History get away. I spent a year in Donestk, part of the Ukraine, and taught high school there for a year and lived with medical physician, his family, and the old grandmother. Quite an experience!! I know you arre so interested in all of that hot air! LOL Good luck, jcmath1
That is good information I am very interested and will have some similar items coming up in the future. I love history especially this period thank you for the insight.

jcmath1, I think you were quite fortunate to live outside the US. I lived 3 yrs in Greece working the Middle East and then 4 in Brussels - working in "eastern Europe" as it was then called. Times have changed! It gave me a perspective and awareness I never would have gained. I love this piece, and plan to bid aggressively -LOL! My time outside the states also cultivated a deeper sense of history than I had on my departure. I know more info than wanted. Way. :)
