Description:
I go to Russia regularly, and had been looking for a Moskva Model' 4 for quite a few years, unsuccessfully. But through the magic of the internet, I ended-up getting this pristine version delivered to my door. The serial-number matched case is pretty nice too. It has that distinctive faux-leather aroma of every Soviet hardback book, so typing on it reminds me of every library and archive I've ever visited in the former Soviet Union.

RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Moskva 4 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Moskva Serial Number page and the Moskva 4 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
