Another interesting estate find, buried in an old trunk tucked into an old envelope along with a stash of Russian Currency was this group of World War 1 Era Russian documents, letters & more. We can't read a lick of it, but they look like travel and identity papers, the equivalent of passports at the time and includes additional documents received in the years after arrival in America, letters from back home, photographs, etc.
Carried by Russian Immigrants to America somewhere in the early days after World War I from the looks of it, possibly to escape the oppression of the Russian regime and Vladimir Lenin at the time. A variety of documents if you can translate there is a story to tell here for sure. Many are quite fragile, 100 plus years in a hot attic contributed to that, but all are quite legible, a rare trove of history. Check our other listings for the currency & coins that were also found.
