More information
Following Bolin's great successes at the World Exhibition in London in 1851, Henrik Conrad Bolin moved to Moscow and there opened the company's first Moscow branch together with the Englishman James Shanks, hence the name Shanks & Bolin, Magasin Anglais. Note that there is a sticker with the company's name remaining in the case.
