Foreword

    I started my collection by pure accident: about one year ago I happened to be on the garret of old
building and have found there my first brick with mark "". Then I have found some other bricks
there. And with these bricks I started my collection.

    The major part of my collection (except several bricks) consists of bricks produced before 1917.
In 1917 revolution has took place in Russia, centre of it was Saint-Petersburg (in that period it was
capital of Russia) and political regime has been changed. After that all private plants and factories,
including brick-plants, were nationalized and many of them were closed. And in the Soviet period
that started after revolution marking of bricks was practically cancelled.

Info & Navigation

    Bricks with signs in Cyrillic are placed in alphabetical order. With signs in Roman letters and bricks
with marks – without order because of their small quantity.
    Detailed information about bricks in English will appear later when I will find enough info in
Russian – unfortunately now I have rather small volume of info.
   
In catalogue there are several modern bricks, but as they have mark on them, they have right to be in
catalogue. I guess these bricks were produced before 1970s. If I’ll find information that bricks with
such marks are still produced I will exclude them from my collection.
    I would be very glad to exchange or buy bricks from other countries but it is impossible due to high
international mail tariffs.

    Signs on the bricks mean the following:
Letters mean name or first letters of name of brick-plant owner; rarely it means name of place
(village or river near plant) where brick-plant was situated.
Marks (for example horseshoe) usually mean trade mark of plant.
