A few weeks ago I requested dating information for the following
reproduction map of Moscow which Cornell had provisionally dated as from
the 1910s:
Author:
Tipograf¯iia A.S. Suvorina.
Title:
Plan goroda Moskvy, s prigorodami / Izdan¯ie T-va A.S. Suvorina, "Novoe
vremia."
Published:
[Moscow] : PKO "Kartografiia" : Izd. Istoricheskoe nasledie", c1991.
We have narrowed the date a little, with specialist help:
"Cornell was right about it being from the 1910s, but I think that it is
more precisely from 1913, since it shows the existence of a small church
on the opposite side of the river from the Kremlin that was completed at
the end of 1912."
