English Russia has a great collection of the picture postcards depicting the Russian empire at the start of the 20th century. Some of them would make great stamps and wall stickers.

At the beginning of the XX century another Russian photographer, Sergey Ivanovich Borisov, during his expedition across mountain areas of Altai (1907-1914) made more than 1000 photos later on used as material for coloured post cards of various European publishing offices.

  1. I’ll buy any old Russian post cards (issued not later 1920 y.) and soldier’s photos.
