Leningrad, Drama Pushkin Theatre
Much captioning, attributions, pricing, quantities, and so on, in Russian at the bottom. In the message area of this otherwise unused and heavily aged card from 1955, there’s an English legend that looks as though it was written in later, or maybe it was built into the card at time of printing. We have no idea, so we will grade as though it’s handwriting: Grade: 4

Russian Federation map
Normally we don’t list PostalShop cards but we also understand persons living in some parts of Russia may have problems finding normal cards for sale in their areas, and this one does tick a lot of boxes.

Kazan (set of 18) (not postcards)
You can unfold the cover, remove the cards, see the fronts, and it is only when you turn them over that you see the reverses are fully printed (in Russian) with details of what they show. So, yes, they are unused; and no, you could not mail them as postcards in the usual way. But they are the right size and shape, and deserve listing here anyway. Grade: 1

Kirov, square near the Church of the Intercession Vyatka
One needs to be able to interpret Russian postmarks to know when this card was mailed (05 01 14 18) but that postmark is crystal clear along with four stamps, an address label, and various other markings. Grade: 3

Code: 20545273
Price: $2.00
Foros, Crimea – The Church of the Resurrection of Christ
We are obliged to remain as apolitical as possible, even when confronted with a card like this: clearly captioned as a church in Crimea, yet labeled as “My Russia” and mailed from Saratov in 2021 with stamp and postmark. We shall say no more. Grade: 1

Code: 20545274

Moscow, Lenin’s Mausoleum
Well then, Lenin died in 1924. His mausoleum as we know it now opened in 1930, and this postcard was made in 1935 then mailed (maybe) in 1937. The stamp is long gone but the postmark is there. The card is in poor condition but oozes age and character. Grade: 5

Code: 20545280
Price: $4.00
Leningrad, view
Very heavily handled postcard mailed in 1983 with three stamps and postmark, along with a “Magic Marker” black line through the recipient’s name only. Not sure what purpose that served. Grade: 4

Code: 20545281
Price: $2.00
Moscow, Sverdlov Square
It was called this between 1919 and 1991, and is now Theatre Square but the flimsy old real-photo card is from (we think) 1937. The stamp and parts of the postmarks are gone. Poor condition, but authentic. Grade: 5

Price: $2.00
Moscow, The Kremlin
In the earlier 20th century, an American publisher produced a large series of postcards depicting scenes from around the world. The cards were for sale in the USA, not in the countries whose attractions they showed. At least we think that’s the case. None of these cards have publisher’s attributions and we have admittedly been a bit lazy to find out more about them, even though we have many of these global postcards scattered around inside our website. So we stress that this is a very old, unused, captioned card of the Kremlin but made in the USA. Grade: 1

Code: 20545283
Price: $3.00
Bird’s’ (sic) Eye View of Moscow, Russia
See our explanation for #20545283. Unused American card. Grade: 1
