April 17 auction House " Kabinet "held another antiquarian auction" Old and rare books, prints , photographs . " And very well spent : the hammer has gone from 245 offered for sale 497 lots ( 49.3%) with a total result of more than 25.5 million rubles - 48.2 %of the average estimate of the total catalog of all lots .

One reason for this good ( especially against the background of some other spring trades) results undoubtedly lies in the excellent organization and transparent mechanism of the auction process . However, the main role played in the success , of course, full , slightly less than 500 lots , catalog , making the auction organizers have taken into account that seems to be all the most popular this year, "book " public topics .

In 2014 marks the centenary of the First World war. Moscow auction regulars know that everything connected with it , causing a huge ( with very solvent ) the public interest . The organizers paid tribute to this interest , collecting almost a hundred lots - popular prints , posters, postcards , periodicals - and for the first time by highlighting them in a separate string . I'll tell you that trading on the thong has become one of the highlights of the evening .

separate section sold a dozen unique publication dedicated to the history of regiments and military educational institutions of Russia XIX century.

not ignored compilers directory and especially the ongoing debate in Ukraine and Crimea . In the books of this subject can be found in the first study of the ancient Russian Crimea - Russian scientist - geographer and ethnographer Academician PI Koppen "On antiquities Southern coast and mountains Taurian" (St. Petersburg, 1837 , Lot 40 ), " chronicles the story of Little Russia and its people and all the Cossacks . Collected and compiled through the work of A. Rigelman 1785-86 year " in 1847 , (Lot 59), as well as one of the most famous books devoted to Kiev " Kiev now and before "(1888 , lot 128) M. Zaharchenko etc .

Special mention deserves the selection of the first Russian periodicals that included true rarities like the magazine " Herald Drama " in 1808 , Russia's first such publication devoted to the theater ; complete set for 1823 , 1824 , 1825 almanac "Polar Star" with numerous lifetime editions of poems and poems of Alexander Pushkin (Lot 36); three numbers (13-15 ) " The Messenger of Europe " - one of the first Russian literary magazines based NM Karamzin and published in Moscow in 1802-1830 years (Lot 27), etc.

Another plus of this directory - the most interesting and potentially popular items were distributed to him more or less uniformly , thereby evenly , without much slack , the course of trading and stimulated the activity of nearly four dozen people gathered in the saleroom , so and participants by phone . As a result, these categories of players , and showed the highest activity : 109 of 245 lots sold went into the hall , 104 - telephone participants , 32 of 87 times was successful absentee bid .

Began auction in good pace. The first purchase occurred already in the hall on the 7th lot : about 26 000 to 19 000 at the start of extra-mural rate took edition " Evgeonit , or in contemplation of nature visible bodies of God ... " 1782 . But after 7 lots , 600 to 000 in the hall start buyer acquired " an instrument of acceptance of Honorary Members of the St. Petersburg Free Society of Lovers of Russian Literature Vasily Zhukovsky April 20, 1818 " - the largest departure hall this evening. < /p>

But the most expensive lot of the auction was the publication in 1906 in the French language " Talashkino . Decorative arts workshops Tenisheva Princess . " Instance in the publishing cover patterned font V. Zamirailo , headpieces and vignettes I. Bilibin , Roerich , 162 illustrations and 18 black and white photographs of works of art Malyutina , Vrubel , A. Golovin , etc. (Lot 196bis). Album with 1.15 million rubles launch party left on your phone, a few steps from the hall outplayed challenger for 1.25 million rubles .

Despite these rather significant results present with a special look waited thong Lubkov and posters of the Revolution and the First World War . And it has paid off : all we again managed to witness the next round of the epic "Battle of the splints ».

As in previous auctions, the main contenders for all lots in the same category in the hall were two, sometimes between phone kept breaking party . This trinity in the fight raised the price of one item after another in the average order that what has been introduced in the range of 6.5 to 60 thousand rubles, Care 140-400 thousand. It is in this range has been sold 60 lots of 114 popular prints and posters. The remaining costs by 40-60 thousand , which is also , however, not bad for a lottery , often unnumbered graphics .

Despite the price rises popular prints , the most expensive - 400 000 rubles on the phone from the start in 60,000 - became yet poster 1916 " The subscription to the second year of publication in 1917 on the literary and political- economic magazine " 1914 "(" Our Station " ) ." For comparison, the most expensive splint this time scored "only" 190,000 rubles : for that amount went into the room from the start of 43,000 rubles print style D. Moore « Courland Baron. Ballad " - Issue number 1 of the series " Fugitive Pictures "(lot 335 ).

After such a busy drawing posters and popular prints (someone in the audience said that the charge of emotions so that and go to the theater is not necessary) , the remaining 100 lots catalog by sensations perceived tenderers if not cool, that is pretty cool . Deserves special mention , perhaps, bargaining between the two phones for " Album charts , and pictures of toposkhem reconstruction of Moscow " Stepanova and Rodchenko in 1938 (lot 471) . Started with 360,000 rubles, and nearly 10 applicants took steps to decide the fate of publication. In the end, the winner took the album for 470,000 rubles .

In general, the auction , which lasted nearly three hours left the most positive impression and showed impressive results. With what and congratulate the organizers and look forward to new records .
