Dottie,

There is a Russian-language website

http://fototikon.blogspot.com/2016/05/Poltava-gubernia-photoatelier-1861-1917.html

that lists the photography studio of Gdal' Leyvovich Varshavskiy in Poltava. >from
1889-1903 it was located on Kobelyakskaya Street in the Gritskevich house (or
building). In 1903-1904 it was on Aleksandrovskaya Street in the Varshavskiy house
(or building).

It doesn't mention Novorossisk, but can you scan the Russian original and post it
to Viewmate or email it to me?

The site http://fototikon.blogspot.com has many examples of photographs and lists
of photographers >from throughout the Russian empire. The site is mostly in
Russian, but your browser or Google Translate can give you rough translations.
