Collection
Flige, Nikolaĭ Nikolaevich, 1876-1959

Collection includes Flige's memoirs, which discuss such topics as his childhood and education; ballet and theatre; Kiev and St. Petersburg; his great-uncle, N.Kh. Bunge, his father-in-law V.N. Kokovt︠s︡ov, and Sergeĭ Witte; and of the 1917 Revolution. There are also essays by him on such topics as insurance companies, on the business world of St. Petersburg, and on agrarian issues. Notes and materials collected by Flige evidently relate to a planned book on the fate of the Imperial family during the Revolution. Printed materials include M. Gert︠s︡enshteĭn's, "Agrarnyĭ vopros" (1906), and Aleksandrov's, "Nekotorye dannyi︠a︡ po agrarnomu voprosu" (1917).

Garvi, Petr A. (Petr Abramovich), 1881-1944

The typed manuscript describes the development of the workers' cooperative movement in Russia from the 1860s to 1921, emphasizing the conflicts that arose after 1917 between the workers' cooperatives, which sought to preserve their independence and political neutrality, and the Bolsheviks, who demanded unanimous support for their program from the workers.

Collection
Kryzhanovskiĭ, S. E. (Sergeĭ Efimovich), 1862-approximately 1930

The papers consist of correspondence, manuscripts, subject files, and printed materials. Correspondence includes letters by Vladimir Kokovt︠s︡ov, and letters concerning the posthumous publication of Kryzhanovskiĭ's memoirs. Manuscripts include drafts of these memoirs and other items by Kryzhanovskiĭ. There are also manuscripts, chiefly memoirs, by other persons; most were evidently sent to Kryzhanovskiĭ as editor of the emigre journal "Russkai︠a︡ Letopis"́ in the 1920s, but were never published. They deal with such topics as the Imperial police and government and the 1917 Revolution and the Civil War. There is a large group of manuscripts and related printed items, evidently prepared by Kryzhanovskiĭ, on the projected governmental system of a post-Bolshevik Russia. Subject files deal with the 1917 Revolution, emigre monarchism, and other topics.
