When did you start collecting Soviet Awards?
#38
In terms of collecting age I am an embrio - less than 9 months. But the background has always been there - the family 'legend' is that I got my name when my elder brother (died a few years back of cancer) on the day I was born was taking a book about Sergei Mironovich Kirov back to the libray and somehow lost it. He cried bitterly - I got my first name. But more importantly, my father (who is also dead now Sad ) was an army officer, and I guess if you grew up in a Russian officer's family it will never let you go - no matter where you live, and despite all the arguments about who was right and who was wrong throughout the Soviet history - and, boy, didn't we use to have a fight!
It was only a question time for me, really. Sergei.
