We continue to publish photographs of old Moscow of different periods. Today we have a mixture of pictures: some are dated 1913-14 and 1927-1929, others are of the later period. Streets, shops, hotels, cafes as they were in Moscow of the days forever gone.
Also see previous parts: 1, 2.
These are graduates of the Academy of Communist Education.
1913-14.
Tea house, shoe store and other shops are in the street.
A very nice series of photos. Thanks for posting.

You’re welcome.
