Illustrations by Lev Tokmakov for Katya in Toy City, 1973

These scans come from da-zdra-per-m, my favorite Russian illustration blog (defunct). (This is my third post from their archives, following Snuffbox Village and Queen of Spades.)

In April, I featured my own scans of Tokmakov's Fairy Tales about Animals. I've since found a retrospective of his work and a few more of his books—he was prolific, and very popular in Russia. More to come.
