This photo print, captured by Mikhail Alekseevich Tsvetkov in the early 1930s, offers a glimpse into the world of ferrous metallurgy on January 1, 1933. The image is part of an atlas titled "Industry of the USSR at the beginning of the 2nd Five-Year Plan," providing valuable insights into Soviet industrialization during this pivotal period.
The photograph showcases a meticulously crafted map that serves as a visual representation of various aspects related to ferrous metallurgy. It features conventional signs denoting boundaries, settlements, railways (both operational and under construction), and mining administrations for iron ore extraction. Additionally, factories are classified into twelve different types based on their specific functions.
The map's color palette adds vibrancy to its cartographic details while Cyrillic lettering guides viewers through its intricate legend. Each number corresponds to a serial number found in the appendix—a comprehensive list detailing all industrial enterprises featured in this remarkable atlas.

This historical artifact holds immense value for researchers and enthusiasts interested in understanding Soviet Union's economic development and technological advancements.
Preserved within esteemed institutions such as Congress Library and National Library of Russia, Tsvetkov's photograph stands as a testament to his contribution towards preserving our collective heritage.
