MOSCOW. Pre-revolutionary weekly "Niva" will be able to read now all comers.

He founded the publishing house published books by the best domestic and foreign authors with excellent illustrations, popular science literature, and art publications. 10 years after the death of Adolf Fedorovich, his brainchild passed into the ownership of the famous businessman and publisher Ivan Sytin. The October revolution put a point in the history of the book empire of Marx.
Family Weekly Niva is one of Adolf Fedorovich’s most successful projects. The last issues of the illustrated magazine came out in the post-revolutionary 1918 two years before the half-century anniversary.
