1885 (14 Aug) 4k stationery card sent by the explorer Sven Hedin from the Tiflis railway station to his father in Stockholm, with Moscow transit and Stockholm arrival pmks, fine (Hedin, on the first of many trips to Russia, was on his way to Balakhany, a suburb of Baku, to act as tutor to the son of Erhard Sandgren, who worked for Nobel Oil. He writes "Dear Dad and Mom, I am now in Asia. We left Vladikavkaz at 6 am Tuesday morning. We traveled in two carriages. The Sandgrens and engineer Fernstrom used the smaller one and I was on the one with the luggage. I had the better view. Now and then we changed places. From Vladikavkaz one follows the Georgian military road. It is a marvel of engineering, snaking along the vertical mountain sides. For several hours one has the top of Mt. Kazbek above one's head. It is overwhelmingly magnificent. The mountains are incredible. They disappear in a bluish fog and are covered by snow. There are no words to describe them. In any case we traveled all day and changed horses at every station. I have twenty photographs of the mountains and stations. We continued all through the night because Sandgren wanted to meet someone in Tiflis. The road is 20 Swedish miles (200 km) long. Where it is very steep one drives with 5-6 horses. We were blessed with gorgeous moonshine and imposing fairytale pictures. Tiflis is a nice city. I am very tired after the journey through the night. Greetings to all from Sven") (Image)

1909 (6 Sep) picture postcard franked with 3k red, sent from Sevastopol to Alupka (a resort city located in the Crimean peninsula), by the zoologist Ivan Ivanovich Puzanov (addressed to Dr. V. Ya. Polunin who owned a dacha in New Simeiz and was Puzanov's neighbor). With handstamp "Steamship Meotida". (The message reads, "Honorable neighbor! Did you hear the whistle when the Meotida passed New Simeiz at 6 AM on 4 September? I wonder. I think only the janitor Stefan heard it. In three days, or even sooner, we will once again pass Simeiz and then I will come ashore. You are welcome to inspect the ship but be warned: there are no sick people on board. On the 15th I will finally disembark at Simeiz and stay there for a week. Regards, I. Puzanov-Chernomorsky." In 1909, while a student at Moscow University, Puzanov obtained some practical experience at the Sevastopol Biological Station by taking part in an expedition to collect specimens of marine life along the southern coast of Crimea from Cape Lucullus (north of Sevastopol) to Kerch. The Ministry of Trade and Industry put the small steamship Meotida at the disposal of the expedition from 15 August to 15 September. In his book, Puzanov says that on 4 September, the ship was returning to Sevastopol from Kerch; on 6 September (when this card was mailed) he and the ship were in Sevastopol; on 9 September the ship made a 30 minute stop in Simeiz; on 15 September the expedition ended in Yalta and the ship returned to Sevastopol without him; he sailed to Simeiz that evening on the yacht Tatiana; at the end of September he returned to Moscow. His signature is a humorous imitation of those of famous explorers who were given the right to add territorial names to their family names, Chernomorsky referring to the Black Sea. The photograph on the back has an arrow pointing to the Sevastopol Biological Station which still exists in the same building under the name A. O. Kovalevsky Institute of Marine Biology Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences), Ex-Casey (Image)
