Dear colleagues,

In case these have not already come to your attention...

In 1909, Alex Murray Howe V's great-grandfather  accompanied a group of American 
champion trotting horses on an exhibition tour of Moscow. He took 400 
photographs, of which 72 can be seen 
here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/cranewoods/sets/72157626191454674/
This remarkable record of pre-revolutionary Moscow was featured in the May 10 
issue of The Moscow Times:

Best regards,
