Profitable house R.P. Sablina. Father Nikita Watchmen, the first priest of the village of northern katyk Katyk sleeves

Still, they knew how to please people a century ago with really spring, life-affirming advertising to the limit :)

By the way, I didn't know who Katyk was. That is, it was clear that the advertisement was about cigarette shells. But only. Went looking for details. And here's what turned out:

Abram Ilyich Katyk - the son of the poor Karaites of the city of Evpatoria, with a lower Karaite and general education. Katyk is the initiator and main founder of the cigarette-sleeve factory he created together with his brother Joseph Ilyich Katyk (1862-1923) around 1890 in Moscow ... Since the summer of 1891, he owned the famous Dukat tobacco factory (the name came from the beginning of two surnames - Duvan and Katyk).

By the way, I did not know where the name "Dukat" came from :)

Here's another interesting story:

In 1904, the Bakhchisarai tradesman Efet Abramovich Erak arrived in Samara, who rented the basement and part of the house at Moscatelnaya, 83. Then three more arrived at the prepared place: a relative from Evpatoria, Sar Shalom Shamuilovich Erak, and also from Kremenchug, the tradesman Babakai Moiseevich Kogen and from Bakhchisaray Yakov Iosifovich Katyk. At a secret meeting, it was decided to create a company for the production of cigarette sleeves .... Yakov Katyk became the main figure in his business ... The partners folded their capital as follows: Erak - 4500 rubles, the second Erak - 250 rubles, and Y. Katyk - too 250 rubles. Cohen, without investing anything, was responsible for production and marketing, since he himself owned Gabai's cigarette store. Under the notary, the gentlemen concluded the following agreement on the division of profits: 40%, of course, was taken by the owner of the fixed capital E. Erak, 25% went to Sar Erak, but 35% went to J. Katyk.

newborn trading house received a certificate on April 25, 1905 in the Samara city government. The salesman Cohen rejoiced - cigarette casings with the emblem “Ya. Katyk and K” were sold with incredible speed. Wholesalers burst into the office, production tripled and increased tenfold. Packaging "I. Katyk and K ”filled the holds of steamships, stuffed freight wagons and were transported throughout the country. Huge profits rained down like golden rain on the bank accounts of craftsmen. In 1908, the firm won the prestigious Grand Prix at an exhibition. On the emblem trademark a medal appeared. But then a wild scandal erupted.

It turned out that the company's success was due to some delicate circumstance. Since 1890, the famous firm for the production of cigarette sleeves "A.Katyk and K" has been operating in Moscow. She gained worldwide popularity and her products were preferred by outstanding Russian writers, politicians, and famous artists. She has been mentioned in novels and poems. Everyone knew “A.Katyk” in one word. And so the consumer fell for the hook thrown into the sea of ​​business by the talented rogue E. Erak. No one paid attention to the fact that instead of “A” there is “I” on the label. Otherwise, the trademarks were practically the same. When the Samara fake fell into the hands of the Moscow merchant Abram Ilyich Katyk, he literally turned white with rage - I will incinerate, destroy, tear, sue - the capital magnate shouted. Thus began the noisy process. The Samara office at Moscatelnaya was sealed, cartridge cases, boxes, labels, letterheads were arrested, the grief of entrepreneurs was also detained, their accounts were frozen .... Lawyers raised all the laws of the Russian Empire and did not find a specific article condemning the use of trademarks by others in their business. Since Yakov Katyk really exists, then the company can be called by his name. However, Abram Katyk's lawyers referred to the fact that Yakov contributed only 250 rubles, and Erak 4,500 rubles, which means that the catch and intent are obvious. The percentages were calculated in relation to the amounts that were presented as charges. They say the company should be called "Erak and Company", and not "Katyk" at all, let this vile Erak try to sell cigarette sleeves under his own name.

Abram Katyk from Moscow demanded compensation until the start of World War I. However, he was told that Erak had died. When the bailiffs broke the doors of the office, they found only empty rooms, and on the floor there were several labels, as if thrown in memory of “I. Katyk and K". Meticulous policemen picked them up from the floor, shook off the dust and pinned them to the court case. They still lie in the Samara archive, printed in red letters on glossy paper. Here they are witnesses of past battles in the world of Samara entrepreneurship at the beginning of the century.

And now, to the heap, another example of funny Katykov's advertising was found:

The old man stood, leaning on a stick, and in an undertone mockingly read Katyk's call to smoke only his shell casings.
- Rogue! the old man shouted angrily and waved his stick menacingly.
- Who are you talking about?
“About Katyk, sir, about the manufacturer Katyk,” the old man answered kindly: apparently, he was not averse to entering into a conversation.
I asked why Katyk is a rogue and a crook.
This story is very long...
... It was then that the rogue Katyk surfaced. It’s not enough for him to have shell casings and racing horses - he decided to mine salt in the bay, since in winter the waves throw it ashore right in the mountains. Established for this joint-stock company, wrapped everyone; salt does not export, and Kara-Bugaz received almost full possession from the government. That's why I say that this Katyk of yours is a pretty rogue....

Now a little politics and everything else

It seems to me that Tsar Ferdinand I and Brezhnev would have yielded little :)

The chief Russian parliamentarian is a model of calmness and order. Meanwhile, in the parliament of the second part of the dual monarchy, what is going on:

Stallion Trifle won a prize of more than ten thousand rubles ... Trifle - 10,000 rubles - not a trifle ... The question is what to do :)

In a residential area of ​​Kazan, the restaurant is not for ruble millionaires, but for billionaires. A bright building, next to the overpass - not to say that the palace is on the way. Carpets on the street, a cow with a calf and a parking lot, a porter opens the door, staff dressed in the uniform of 22nd century steward guides, waiters are complemented by white seals, and a guard with a whole hat. The show has begun!

Interior rich, out of one style, the veranda - so quite a Malvinian house, the main hall is stricter, the second is warmer, with photographs and sideboards. The main thing is that everything is rich, keyword that knocks, dishes of a very interesting collection, even a tea cup is so unusual, I have never seen it. A little not metropolitan, but definitely pathos. Surprised, even though I read the site. From the menu.

Menu large, with national dishes in each section. You read, you think everything ... and then there are more mentions of Tatar dishes. More. One of the most expensive restaurants in Russia where I have been. Most of the dishes cost twice as much as I'm used to seeing. 60 gr. roast beef for a snack -1200 rubles, steak - 2400 rubles, ordinary manti - 800 rubles. I asked the taxi driver: no, we have more expensive restaurants. But manti, sir, manti...

Everything is good here, except for control. You feel like you're in the Gulag. Twice the guard called and then the admin came to ask why I was taking pictures on the phone? Not guests and a wedding, but a pie and a cow at the entrance. Are people stuck in the last century, when there were no social networks, or the year before, when there were no cameras, people did not travel? I have to explain that “just imagine, now it’s customary to capture travel, you know, going to the store, cats and a baby cat? Or you probably took a picture on the beach in Turkey, and if there are problems, I can leave right now. Apparently, I was able to prove my right to the footage of my dinner.

The first complement - katyk in a cup with fried cheese, I decided to mix it - it turned out very well. You need to find out exactly what this cheese is called, fry at home and grate, add to thick St. Petersburg kefir. The second - mini versions of the three national pies - a complete failure. Refrigerator cold, viscous and dead. Bread is served in pieces, also not a fountain, too similar to ready-made. Both were better not to give. But tea with huge dried fruits, "lemon press" and jam.

Soup kiau pilmyane (400 rubles) - Groom's dumplings (I conveyed the legend in a review of D.T.K.) in a wonderful broth. I don’t remember when I ate better, and masterful dumplings. Sour cream for every spoon, and the broth becomes softer ...

Samsa with lamb (65 rubles) is somewhat different than the Uzbek one, the dough is thinner, it is easy to tear from the back. Not bad, but I like the rougher and fatter “boxes”, the Uzbek gift.
Gubadia (60 rubles) rice and raisins - that's a joy. Balance makes a very simple product.

Before the azu, “beauty” is served with the comment “this is an additional garnish for the azu” - a strange thing - egg salad, two quail, red crispy, fennel and cherry on a transparent pedestal with smears of cake cream. I didn’t quite understand, but it’s necessary to justify the class with these special stages. Azu (750 rubles) unusual and unexpected - a modern bowl with thinly sliced ​​​​meat and vegetables, equally divided, in the best gravy. Simply the best. When in St. Petersburg, in Soviet canteens, they made basics, didn’t they stuff meat with pickles before stewing? I remember this version of the last era. Delicious? Highly. Simple, decomposable into products, but absolutely beautiful. Somewhat universal in its tradition, but I have no pretensions.

Total. I don't think I need to explain why I didn't go a second time. After the described incident in the restaurant "Insomnia", such humiliating showdowns did not happen to me, they did not ask me why I was photographing my pie. A place with an average check of 4000 rubles. must be impeccable and must be left with complete satisfaction. Two tables were occupied that day. I think there are more rich people in Kazan. What's the matter? An expensive restaurant, but they are trying to justify these prices with attitude, ritual, portions, excess quality. For example, tea, as it should, is filled with boiling water each time. They poured it into a mug, left wet tea leaves, went to the kitchen, add for another mug: it’s not worth an hour to overinfuse burda.

Restaurant address: Kazan, Amirkhana st., 31

Aron Ilyich Katyk (Sariban-Katyk) (April 25 (May 7), 1883, Evpatoria - May 20, 1942, Leningrad) - an outstanding Karaite writer, teacher and public figure, the first gazzan (priest) with a higher education.

For the first time it was staged in the hall of the Alexander Karaite Theological School and since that time it has enjoyed great success among the Karaites. It contained a lot of Karaite folklore: proverbs and sayings, songs and dances. A.I. Katyk wrote about his play:

“At present, when among us the love for the works of our native antiquity is dying so quickly, when these works are forgotten and disappear, I would like my little Yaddes to arouse at least some readers an interest in the treasures of the Karaite mejums (manuscript collections of folklore) . If, in addition, "Yaddes" gives someone a little fun, I'll be quite satisfied."

The struggle of young Karaite teachers for new, European ways of education was devoted to the one-act play "Yany Yaka Seki Ton" ("A New Collar to an Old Fur Coat"), written by him in 1918.

In 1927, his last play “Sanki the Proletarian” (“False Proletarian”) came out from under his pen in Moscow, which depicts businessmen, under the guise of proletarian origin, doing their dirty deeds. A.I. Katyk tried to show the life of the Karaites “as it is, with all its positive and negative aspects, without taking the side of fanatical ultra-nationalists, or the side of irreconcilable detractors of the Karaites" (Note "A Brief Review of My Literary Activity" // Journal "Bizim Yol" ("Our Way") - 77 pages, 1927, Simferopol ).

In the early 1970s, Svyatoslav Richter and Nina Dorliak settled on the sixteenth floor of 2/6 Bolshaya Bronnaya Street, not far from the Conservatory. This house is a typical brick tower. But going upstairs and entering the apartment, you find yourself in a special world. No luxury, no fuss of things. In everything, one can feel the character and lifestyle of the owner, the special energy of a person whom Yuri Bashmet calls “the safe-conduct of truth in art.” In a large room, called the old hall, Richter studied himself or rehearsed with other musicians. There are two Steinway&sons grand pianos, two antique Italian floor lamps donated by the Mayor of Florence, a tapestry, and paintings. Listening to operas or watching favorite films took place in the hall. In the office, or, as Richter himself called this room, “wardrobe”, there are cabinets with books, records, and cassettes. The most valuable thing here is a cabinet with notes, on which the maestro's notes have been preserved. There is also a wooden figurine of the Infant John the Baptist, this is a memory of the Musical Festivities organized by Richter in Touraine in France. On the wall is a plaster counter-relief with a profile of Boris Pasternak from the monument in Peredelkino - like an imprint, a trace left by a man on the ground, an image wonderfully found by Sarah Lebedeva. Nearby hangs a small landscape of Saryan, donated by Elena Sergeevna Bulgakova. The secretary contains the manuscript of Sergei Prokofiev's Ninth Sonata, dedicated to Richter, a photograph by Heinrich Neuhaus, a drawing by Picasso, "Tiny" by Solzhenitsyn. Such was Richter's social circle. The "Green Room" is a relaxation room, during the days of concerts it turned into an artistic one. On the wall hangs a portrait of his father, Teofil Danilovich, an elegant, reserved man. He graduated from the Vienna Conservatory as a pianist and composer. Teofil Danilovich and Anna Pavlovna (Svyatoslav's mother) failed to leave Odessa in 1941, when Nazi troops approached the city. Teofil Danilovich was arrested and shot on the night of November 6-7 as a "German spy". Anna Pavlovna went to Romania, and then to Germany, forever leaving Russia and her only son, who at that time was in Moscow and was also awaiting arrest. They met only after 20 years. The artistic interests and passions of Svyatoslav Richter were varied, he not only loved painting, but was also an artist himself. His pastels are on display in a small room. In them, Robert Falk noted "an amazing feeling of light." In the former kitchen of Nina Lvovna, there are photographs telling about the life of a musician.
