CZAR’S BOOKS, RARE COSTUMES COME TO PHILADELPHIA MUSEUM

Rare archaeological books from the private library of the late Russian czar and Russian peasant costumes centuries old have been received by the University of Pennsylvania Museum.

About 125 of the czar’s books, mostly archaeological works, have come to the museum by an arrangement made with leading Soviet museums for exchange of material and scientific data.
