The alternative is my own archives, state archives, books of those years, reports on exhibitions, population census, advertisements, death dates, research, knowledge exchange with researchers and a lot of work))) If Postnikova had thoroughly investigated each stamp, she would have written her book i...
We probably just didn't understand each other. I absolutely do not care what number this mark has and in which book. It is important to know the initials of the master for his correct attribution. There are enough cigarette cases with the brand "ИБ" at this time, but in a different form. T...
I do not claim that the marks are taken from the sky. I'm talking about possible errors. Many marks are difficult to read correctly for various reasons. It cannot be excluded that some of Postnikova's drawings contain errors. Some drawings are simply not correct. I hope the drawings of the marks of ...
I have a different opinion. I don't use the PL book in attributions (except for some provincial cities), because there are too many errors there. You do not consider the image of, for example, a girl in a kokoshnik from this book to be authentic))) These are just drawings, not photos. I repeat, I wo...
This is just a fuzzy drawing. I think that I have seen the brands of this master no less than PL. I would like to see a real brand where the first letter is clearly "Н", and, for example, not "И".
Indeed, I just gave examples of the brands of masters who made similar products at that time: "ае","АР", "АС". The top speaker is not sure what initials are on the brand. I think the brand can be cleaned. Perhaps there are letters "ae" ( master а.еgorov). This...
Such a stamp could be used, but not very often until 1897. In 1897, some cities received still old stamps with the initials of the probirer (for example, Odessa, Vilna), but they were not used much. In 1897 and 1898, the stamp sample/coat of arms of the city was mainly used. Next, a girl in a kokosh...
Such a brand can occur separately, or maybe together with the brands with the initials of the probirer So you are saying that the kleimo of the probirer/assayer was not always added? In Russian. Try to translate if you have a question: Такой тип клейма (проба/герб города) как на перстне мог применя...
I am writing only about the theory, not about the authenticity of this ring. This type of state stamp could be used in 1882-1898. More often in 1896-1898
