General Director of one Moscow telecommunication company. Today the
museum is closed for detached visitors and welcomes only mass-media and
some special guests. Only the collection of telephones is exposed today,
but everything now is being done to make a comprehensive museum of it.
In summer 2011 they promise to open the doors of the museum in St. Petersburg for all who want to visit it.
