yesterday, even on Channel Baturin lit up in the clothes and the image of their favorite character.

According to the stories of gallery owners, all that is connected with Napoleon Baturin knows very deeply, to many, de historians give odds. Frequenter of historical reconstruction, in whose image is clear. But agriculture was shattered.
I myself have children a few years ago, accidentally fell into an exhibition at the Borodino panorama, things Napoleon. Another thought, then, who are a fan? Looking at the boxes and so on. And now I know the people who it these boxes and swords fetched.
Severely upset the deterioration of cases from Baturin.
