SA850-There are 18 cards for sale here, all done by the Russian illustrator, Bem. Although this artist is known for his drawings of children, this is  a great stack of postcards from an 'ABC' set.  The Russian language has a larger alphabet so I have no idea whether this is a complete set.  Cards are chock fill of detail and each has a very fancy border. One has a very tiny crease on left side,  hardly noticeable, another has very light rounding on the right top;  the rest are very clean, small differences in the back but all are early cards, the scan is more garish than original. VG++
$225.00 for 18 postcards
