And you look, it's not hard!

And that's true.

Here is what was found in the ranking of the most expensive Russian books, prodavashihsya at auction in 2010. Lobachevsky in native cover publishing took second place:

Hmm, not that knizhentsiya ...

But what should be the "bell":

in 1998 at a Christie's auction in New York almost the whole year sold the most famous in the world of library science and medicine: "The Haskell F. Norman library of science and medicine". At the third auction of the vast collection of scientific Unic under lot number 1174 hid modest konvolyut of 5 articles nadergannyh of "Bulletin of Kazan" for the 1829-30 years. Affects the final price - a huge at that time! $ 387.500! It's like now, where a $ 1 million. By all accounts it appears that this is one of the most legendary Russian books! The most expensive Russian books then cost $ 3,000 - $ 10,000.

What do we have? Borovkov is charged with a crime event 14 years ago? That is, 14 years ago sold the book from someone else, we emphasize the collection, they hardly got the time of delivery of books at auction, it would be strange, and therefore before?

Assume that the fault of the poor Borovkova proved. But that tells us of the Criminal Code of Russia?
 Here's what:

Article 78. Exemption from criminal liability in connection with the expiration of time limits
[Criminal Code][Chapter 11] [Article 78]

1. Shall be exempt from criminal liability, if the date of the offense expired on the following dates:

a) two years after the commission of minor offenses;

b) six years after committing the crime of medium gravity;

c) ten years after the commission of serious crime;

g) fifteen years after the commission of serious crime.

Stealing books, even the fabulously expensive, from the library - this is a "particularly serious crime"?? But if so, that the statute of limitations - out!

Or, again, someone nadergal for Borovkova the same hyperbolic, but it recently? Then the penny the price for this publication if it is ekzmplyary in any library. Then it should qualify as property damage and petty theft.

After all, any opinion of competent people, this is evidence!

In this case, no clear word (competent). In what way? in books, in human relations, the situation on the art market or in politics .....

Or, perhaps, awoke in him in his old age, "Shura Balaganov syndrome," which, having a fifty thousand, and mechanically put his hand in someone else's pocket for three rubles

 In general, someone said that no crime is punished, and stupidity. I think that guilt is not a crime, as if to say the least conscious sin, not intentional.

Home specificity of the present moment is that, unlike in the past, based on background of such cases almost always are - MONEY.
A tough time right now, the money in one way or another depend on it. Any dealer, especially owning a shop or gallery, is "by definition" is the target for different actions - from naive attempts vtyuhat through primitive falshaka old woman for a few hundred dollars to multi-step combinations that involve a lot of people, often, government officials and respectively, tasks are much more serious. I believe that colleagues may not always have to keep on the same principle as that of another must - in a fight, not looking at first, right or wrong.

Yes, of course, is the right position, but when there is no implication of money. Where money reigns, there must come to the aid of money, where for the sake of material well-being, we have podigryvat Hammam, himself in the end they'll be the same.

 The first time I hear this name, but for some reason, wanted to support him. We must be ready for anything.

Borovkov, united with such collectors as the head of Michael Rospechat Seslavinsky and CEO of Channel One , Konstantin Ernst, according to investigators, was not only the organizer of the theft , but also their customers, and the final buyer of stolen rare books .

It is doubtful that the above-mentioned gentlemen were friends Borovkov collector . Rather, one of his clients , who come from estate and soon - rich, new rich , who just got rich, but only materially, but not this duhovno.Ot the public can be expected only because of the principle - " to take " gift of all that they have become rich and hochetsya.Tak and richer.
 How can you publicly accuse a person of a crime before the final decision ? Zhurnalyugi nakropavshie libel " to the investigation of " thinking about it? Publication of custom and low in nature.

In the evening talking with Anatoly Ivanovich. I am telling it from memory. On Thursday, the investigator should bring the text of the charges. Borovkov pleaded not guilty , denies the charges . He is charged with two " stolen " books and engravings , for which there is no trace of the seals and their details (which, as he says, confirmed the review) . The charge of the organization is based on the testimony of three characters, who were accused of stealing books from the library. For reasons about which one can guess , indicated Borovkov . At the time, published a huge circulation Borovkov ad offering to buy the book Russian avant-garde . According to these ads Borovkov was something about 3000 calls ( hard to fit in your head, can I somehow did not understand) . Including a few times and called these "characters " and their books examined . Of course , the material with the data library stamps did not take.
Details not yet be showing up to court so as not to weaken the position of defense. I want to believe that the defense will cope . And Anatoly Ivanovich - wish strength and , most importantly, health.

Vladimir, and you'll be in some way to express their respect to the fact of abduction of your photos ?

I asked kompromat.ru that they took photos. I explained that I had done in the exhibition " Russian Avant-garde isms " (http://artinvestment.ru/invest/event...borovikov.html), almost on a holiday and then this context ... They replied politely , but in fact the request was denied. So it happened that holiday photo illustrates a publication.

Organiser theft of rare books facing 15 years

Maria Bortnovskaya, Saint-Petersburg "The Russian newspaper" - www.rg.ru

Well-known Russian collector Anatoly Borovkov will be judged for organizing a criminal group that engaged in theft of antique books and unique manuscripts of scientific libraries of Russia and CIS countries. As told to "RG" head "antique" State Criminal Investigation Department of the Interior Ministry control of Russia in St. Petersburg and Leningrad region, police colonel Vladislav Kirillov, many of the stolen books Borovkov, do not hesitate to offer for sale at his Moscow gallery "Russian Avant-Garde 1910-1930 years" . Other - sold to private collectors.
At the moment the stolen manuscripts seized. Prosecuted under article 164 part 2, paragraph "a" of the Criminal Code (theft of items of particular value), which provides for punishment by imprisonment of up to 15 years.

Developed by law enforcement Borovkov scheme was referred to as a genius.

As a specialist in the field of rare second-hand books, who has knowledge of specific cultural and scientific value of a book (as well as information about their real value) organized criminal group participants pointed to specific editions, which were subsequently stolen. It could be an entire manuscript, as well as its individual fragments. An area in which the work group, was not confined to St. Petersburg. According to operational data, the performers went to the library and in Moscow, Tver, Nizhny Novgorod, Kirov, Kiev, Kishinev and other cities. In each case, Borovkov reserve a reward for the stolen edition.

- In this ideological inspiration not only instructed his accomplices in detail about how to search and book a particular book, but also reassured by explaining that even if they're caught by the hand, then the actions regarded not only as disorderly conduct and damage to property of the library . They say that to anyone and would never call the police. By the way, and it turned out. Librarians often do not even know the cost of a book. Well, even if they see that someone spoils the book, pulling out the page, take a fine 500 rubles, a thousand ... And in fact, the cost of this fragment of the manuscript may be hundreds of thousands - said Vladislav Kirillov.

In fact, to gather evidence and find the defendants in the case of law enforcement officials took 19 months of hard work. Also installed the storage and handling stolen. According to law enforcement officers, the amount of damage from the activities of the "gang of book lovers," millions rubles.
