I am an Soviet and Russian camera collector residing in State of Illinois, USA. I have only somewhat recently started collecting (since May 2007) these fine examples of Soviet and Russian mechanical engineering and design that until late 80s have been closed off to the rest of the world. Now that these cameras have come to light, I want to share them with all of you. Recently I have decided to start cataloging Soviet and Russian cameras online, thus the USSRPhoto.com project was born, which is a Wiki catalog of Russian and Soviet cameras.

Wiki Catalog Entry

To commemorate an International Youth Festival (Moscow 1957), KMZ issued some cameras with special Festival engravings. At least 5 Festival cameras existing: Zorki-C, Zorki-2C, Zorki-3C (very rare), Zorki-4 (rare) and Zenit-C (uncommon). Those cameras were apparently not otherwise different from mass-market variants.
My Zorki-C Festival camera has the serial number # 57150339.

Known serial numbers:

# 57136602 ___ Juhani
# 57138879 ___ A.Nikitin
# 57142579 ___ A.Nikitin
# 57150339 ___ SovietCams
# 57143190 ___ Omega
