The plane flies into the stratosphere, 1935: 
80 years ago "Ogonyok" talked about the unique flight of American Willie Post into the stratosphere.
This outstanding pilot set the record for flying the plane to an altitude of 15 420 meters thanks to the fact that he was the first to put on a special spacesuit to overcome the difference in atmospheric pressure. However, the technological find almost cost him his life.
“All the leading aviation countries are fighting for flight altitude,” wrote Ogonyok in 1935. “After all, whoever flies higher flies faster. And for military aviation, the flight altitude provides less vulnerability of the aircraft from the enemy ... Such flights require the solution of the most complex technical problems. As you know, the rarefaction of the atmosphere at high altitudes reduces air resistance to a flying aircraft, but at the same time it is detrimental to the pilot. "

Baker S.I. Melnikov with his family in a new apartment. Photographer Oleg Knorring, 1951: 
For the baker of the Moscow factory "Bolshevik" S.I. Melnikov 1950 ended well - his large family was given a new apartment. Ogonyok told about him and other new settlers. After the war, people moved into new apartments. And the difficult post-war life did not prevent them from being happy. The baker Melnikov has three children. And the master of the Gorky Automobile Plant named after Molotov Nikolai Grigorievich Kornev - five. The smallest are twins Zina and Tanya. But all the records were broken by the car factory watchman Ivan Vasilyevich Zubrilin - he has nine children. Vladimir and Zhaneta Savitsky - he is a master, she is a design technician - just got married and are waiting for replenishment. And in the next apartment, where the family of the disabled war veteran Alexei Ivanovich Kireev lives, a baby sleeps. At home with the child, Kireev's wife, the owner himself, thanks to Soviet doctors, restored his vision lost in the war and is now resting in a sanatorium.

A really scary photo. Probably, you should have written in the note something like: "Not a single child was hurt during the filming." Better yet, give the photographer a severe reprimand for such dangerous experiments with children.
In 1899, Ogonyok was launched as a modest supplement to the daily newspaper Birzhevye Vedomosti: 
Ogonyok quickly surpassed Birzhevye Vedomosti in popularity, becoming in 1902 an independent magazine with a circulation of 120,000 copies.
One hundred millionth bottle produced in the USSR in 1958: 
In 1952 Ogonyok, in honor of the 50th anniversary of a promising party cadre, printed his profile portrait: 
Georgy Maximilianovich Malenkov (1902-1988) was considered by many to be Stalin's successor. After the death of the leader, this puffy-faced party functionary headed the Soviet government for a couple of years and competed in influence with the new party leader Khrushchev. However, such a duumvirate did not last long, until 1955. An attempt to take revenge in 1957 and demolish Khrushchev ended in the fact that Malenkov was completely deprived of all posts and even his very name was strictly prohibited until Perestroika. As if there had never been such a figure in Soviet history.

How did Americans learn the secrets of the USSR from photography in the Ogonyok magazine? Here is the photo: 
Paradoxically, but true: in the Soviet Union, obsessed with spy mania and general secrecy, the intelligence of the United States and other countries often received overvalued information from open sources. For example, sometime in the early 1960s, the KGB noticed that the staff of the American embassy were buying up bundles of literature from the Academbook. We checked it, it turned out that it was entirely fundamental research in the field of physics, chemistry, etc. Then it became known that these little books saved billions of dollars for the American budget, and years of labor for American scientists.
In 1958, a CIA officer was able to restore a schematic diagram of the power supply of the entire Ural region using just one photo from the Ogonyok magazine.
The retouched photo gave an understanding of the capacity of uranium enrichment plants (after all, the amount of energy consumed is directly related to the plant's capacity and, accordingly, to the number of nuclear warheads produced), and also determined the location of the previously unknown nuclear weapons plant in Lower Tours. Apart from other "little things" throughout the Urals.

The correct (historical) name of the inhabitants of Torzhok is "novotori".

“Comrades are listening to the report of the 5th year student of the mechanical faculty of the Saratov Automobile and Road Institute, comrade Timofeeva I.I. at the scientific and technical circle of the Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology on the topic: "Research of methods of grinding metals and methods of their elimination." The topic is being carried out as social assistance to the Hammer and Sickle factories and the Third State Bearing Plant. On the left - II Timofeev, in the middle - the head of the circle, associate professor Sergei Georgievich Redko, "Ogonyok wrote 60 years ago. Ten years later, Sergei Georgievich became a professor, and even later received the title of Honored Worker of Science and Technology of the RSFSR and the Order of the Red Banner of Labor for his great contribution to the development of science and technology, the creation of a scientific school. His name is entered in the Book of Honor of the Saratov Polytechnic Institute. How was the professional fate of the future young specialist “Comrade Timofeev ”, unfortunately, is unknown. And the institute has gone through several renaming, now it is, as it should be nowadays, the Saratov State Technical University. Gagarin.

In the family of Ernst Wagner, the driver of the Svalyava timber industry enterprise. Wife Clara, son Fyodor, daughter Katya, photo by Nikolai Kozlovsky, 1954: 
“Ernst Wagner, the driver of the Svalyava timber industry enterprise, has just finished his shift. But at home he has a new 'job' waiting for him: he needs to help his wife ransom her daughter, ”wrote Ogonyok, talking about the new, socialist way of life in Transcarpathia, only 10 years old as it joined the Soviet family of peoples. The features of a new life in the timber industry are obvious: firstly, there is no profession of a lumberjack, there are electric drills, winch operators and tractor skidders. Secondly, socialist planning put an end to the plundering of forest resources. But traditions are also alive - behind the ribbons of their hats, the workers of the timber industry, like their fathers, wear green twigs. "Their life has become completely different", - sums up "Ogonyok".

Leo Tolstoy's coachman Ivan Egorov and pioneers, 1954: 
Alas, the author of the picture is not listed.
The Count's coachman Ivan Egorov survived his master and even the Great Patriotic War. And for a long time after the war he ruled horses in the Tolstoy estate, remaining a living sight of Yasnaya Polyana. There he was met in 1954 by Ogonyok correspondents who had come to write about the local school. “Ivan Vasilyevich Egorov ... he worked as a coachman for Tolstoy. He even took pictures with him, ”the schoolchildren told them.

“Comrades are listening to the report of the 5th year student of the mechanical faculty of the Saratov Automobile and Road Institute, comrade Timofeeva I.I. at the scientific and technical circle of the Department of Mechanical Engineering Technology on the topic: "Research of methods of grinding metals and methods of their elimination." The topic is being carried out as social assistance to the Hammer and Sickle factories and the Third State Bearing Plant. On the left - II Timofeev, in the middle - the head of the circle, associate professor Sergei Georgievich Redko, ”wrote Ogonyok 60 years ago. Ten years later, Sergei Georgievich became a professor, and even later received the title of Honored Worker of Science and Technology of the RSFSR and the Order of the Red Banner of Labor for his great contribution to the development of science and technology, the creation of a scientific school. His name is entered in the Book of Honor of the Saratov Polytechnic Institute. How was the professional fate of the future young specialist “Comrade Timofeev ”, unfortunately, is unknown. And the institute has gone through several renaming, now it is, as it should be nowadays, the Saratov State Technical University. Gagarin.
On the construction of the Lanzhou - Alma-Ata railway, Dmitry Baltermants, 1954:
- The donkey is also a car obedient in driving. Shall we exchange? - the peasant offers to the driver of the dump truck.
And this is how the Ogonyok readers saw this picture:
In the family of Ernst Wagner, the driver of the Svalyava timber industry enterprise. Wife Klara, son Fedor, daughter Katya, photo by Nikolai Kozlovsky, 1954:
“Ernst Wagner, the driver of the Svalyava timber industry enterprise, has just finished his shift. But at home a new 'job' awaits him: he needs to help his wife ransom her daughter, ”wrote Ogonyok, talking about the new, socialist way of life of Transcarpathia, only 10 years old as it joined the Soviet family of peoples. The features of the new life in the timber industry are obvious: firstly, there is no profession of a lumberjack, there are electric drills, winch operators and tractor skidders. Secondly, socialist planning put an end to the plundering of forest resources. But traditions are also alive - behind the ribbons of their hats, the workers of the timber industry, like their fathers, wear green twigs. "Their life has become completely different", - sums up "Ogonyok".

Leo Tolstoy's coachman Ivan Egorov and pioneers, 1954:
Alas, the author of the picture is not listed.
The Count's coachman Ivan Egorov survived his master and even the Great Patriotic War. And for a long time after the war he ruled horses in the Tolstoy estate, remaining a living landmark of Yasnaya Polyana. There he was met in 1954 by Ogonyok correspondents who had come to write about the local school. “Ivan Vasilyevich Egorov ... he worked as a coachman for Tolstoy. He even took pictures with him, ”schoolchildren told them.

It is difficult to find in the history of Russian and Soviet journalism an example of such an unparalleled longevity, which was demonstrated by the legendary Ogonyok magazine, which began to be published long before the revolution, and then turned into the most ambitious and politicized Soviet tabloid. This magazine is sold to this day, you can buy the magazine "Ogonyok" from us at a very low price!
History of the magazine "Ogonyok"
It would not be an exaggeration to call the magazine a Russian-Soviet-Russian one, because the first issue of the Ogonyok magazine was published in 1899. Immediately after the revolution, a short break follows (1918-1923), and since 1923 issues of the Ogonyok magazine can be purchased everywhere in Moscow. Having survived perestroika, the weekly is published to this day.
The chief editors, and subsequently the owners of the magazine, periodically changed not only during the years of repression, but also in a more democratic time. Undoubtedly, the magazine received its political coloring after the dispersal in 1938 of the "Journal and newspaper association", led by Mikhail Koltsov. The publication was continued by the Pravda publishing house, which actually belongs to the Central Committee of the CPSU.
After perestroika, Ogonyok changed owners several times, and now belongs to the Kommersant publishing house.

A short historical background about the Ogonyok magazine can be found at http://www.rian.ru/media/20090119/159582908.html
I just tried to do some compilation of some of the pages and covers of the magazine of the past years.
1. Last year, the Ogonyok magazine celebrated its 110th anniversary. The first illustrated magazine in Russia appeared on December 21, 1899 as a weekly illustrated literary and artistic supplement to the Birzhevye Vedomosti newspaper.
2.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Ogonyok was published on eight pages, one-eighth of the printed sheet. The best photographers, writers and poets, feuilletonists and reporters collaborated with the magazine. In the photo: the cover of one of the Ogonyok magazines in 1905. 
3.
The cover is one of the ordinary issues of the pre-revolutionary years. 
4.
One of the pages of the same issue. Like illustrations to the stories of A.P. Chekhov. 
5.
In the spring of 1917, the main topic of the magazine was the First World War. During the revolutionary years (from 1918 to 1923), the publication of many Russian newspapers and magazines ceased. Ogonyok also did not escape this fate, but already in the 1920s the magazine was revived by the Soviet journalist and editor Mikhail Koltsov. 
6.
No. 5, 1923. In the 1920s, the portrait of a famous person on the cover became one of the recognizable features of the magazine. After the 12th Congress of the RCP (b), such people were the assistant to the commander-in-chief of the Red Army for cavalry and a member of the Revolutionary Military Council of the USSR, one of the first marshals of the country, Semyon Budyonny, and People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs Georgy Chicherin. 
7.
No. 1, 1926. In January 1926 "Ogonyok" was involved in the fight against homelessness. 
8.
No. 19-20, 1936. In the 30s, the press was engaged in the promotion of physical education and sports. In 1936, at the parade of athletes in Moscow, the slogan "Thank you Comrade Stalin for our happy childhood!" 
9.
No. 19, 1941. There were just over two weeks left before the war ... 
10.
No. 39, 1941. The first military successes in 1941 near Moscow. The first liberated territories. 
11.
No. 1, 1943. Both soldiers and civilians work together to fight the invaders. 
12.
No. 4, 1943. Year of crucial victories in the Great Patriotic War. 
13.
Same number, last page. For some reason, it is not surprising that chess was very popular in those days. Today, the most "intellectual" leisure of contemporaries is primitive scanwords. 
14.
No. 31-32, 1943. The issue was entirely devoted to the military successes of Stalin's falcons. 
15.
No. 2-3, 1944. The magazine publishes the full color cover. 
16.
Last cover page of the same issue. Cartoonist Boris Efimov for many years remained the "face" of the magazine. 
17.
No. 4, 1944. The Battle of Stalingrad ended exactly one year ago. But the propagandists are in no hurry to praise the other victories of the past 1943. It's hard to guess what the reason is. I can only assume that at that time it was the Battle of Stalingrad that was the starting point of the entire Second World War, which our party ideologists could be proud of without any exaggeration. 
18.
Same issue, last cover page. Our enemies are no longer only Germany. It is noteworthy that in this "zoo corner" there is also Francoist Spain. Now we already know that Franco was able to preserve the borders and keep the regime. But in those years we were still worried about the defeat in Spain at the end of the 30s. They were probably looking for revenge.

The plane flies into the stratosphere, 1935:
80 years ago "Ogonyok" talked about the unique flight of American Willie Post into the stratosphere.
This outstanding pilot set the record for flying the plane to an altitude of 15 420 meters thanks to the fact that he was the first to put on a special spacesuit to overcome the difference in atmospheric pressure. However, the technological find almost cost him his life.
“All the leading aviation countries are fighting for flight altitude,” wrote Ogonyok in 1935. “After all, whoever flies higher flies faster. And for military aviation, the flight altitude provides less vulnerability of the aircraft from the enemy ... Such flights require the solution of the most complex technical problems. As you know, the rarefaction of the atmosphere at high altitudes reduces the air resistance to a flying plane, but at the same time it is detrimental to the pilot. "

For the baker of the Moscow factory "Bolshevik" S.I. Melnikov 1950 ended well - his large family was given a new apartment. Ogonyok spoke about him and other new settlers. After the war, people moved into new apartments. And the difficult post-war life did not prevent them from being happy. Here is the baker Melnikov - three children. And the master of the Gorky Automobile Plant named after Molotov Nikolai Grigorievich Kornev - five. The smallest are twins Zina and Tanya. But all the records were broken by the car factory watchman Ivan Vasilyevich Zubrilin - he has nine children. Vladimir and Zhaneta Savitsky - he is a master, she is a design technician - just got married and are waiting for replenishment. And in the next apartment, where the family of the disabled war veteran Alexei Ivanovich Kireev lives, a baby sleeps. At home with the child, Kireev's wife, the owner himself, thanks to Soviet doctors, restored his vision lost in the war and is now resting in a sanatorium.

In 1952 Ogonyok, in honor of the 50th anniversary of a promising party cadre, printed his profile portrait:
Georgy Maximilianovich Malenkov (1902-1988) was considered by many to be Stalin's successor. After the death of the leader, this puffy-faced party functionary headed the Soviet government for a couple of years and competed in influence with the new party leader Khrushchev. However, such a duumvirate did not last long, until 1955. An attempt to take revenge in 1957 and demolish Khrushchev ended in the fact that Malenkov was completely deprived of all posts and even his very name was strictly prohibited until Perestroika. As if there had never been such a figure in Soviet history.

How did the Americans learn the secrets of the USSR from photography in the Ogonyok magazine? Here's the photo:
Paradoxically, but true: in the Soviet Union, obsessed with spy mania and general secrecy, the intelligence of the United States and other countries often received super valuable information from open sources. For example, sometime in the early 1960s, the KGB noticed that employees of the American embassy were buying up bundles of literature from the Academbook. We checked it, it turned out that this is entirely fundamental research in the field of physics, chemistry, etc. Then it became known that these little books saved billions of dollars for the American budget, and years of labor for American scientists.
In 1958, a CIA officer was able to restore a schematic diagram of the power supply of the entire Ural region using just one photo from the Ogonyok magazine.
The retouched photo gave an understanding of the capacity of uranium enrichment plants (after all, the amount of energy consumed is directly related to the plant's capacity and, accordingly, to the number of nuclear warheads produced), and also determined the location of the previously unknown nuclear weapons plant in Lower Tours. Apart from other "little things" throughout the Urals.

But at home a new 'job' awaits him: he needs to help his wife ransom her daughter, ”wrote Ogonyok, talking about the new, socialist way of life of Transcarpathia, only 10 years old as it joined the Soviet family of peoples. The features of the new life in the timber industry are obvious: firstly, there is no profession of a lumberjack, there are electric drills, winch operators and tractor skidders. Secondly, socialist planning put an end to the plundering of forest resources. But traditions are also alive - behind the ribbons of their hats, the workers of the timber industry, like their fathers, wear green twigs. "Their life has become completely different"
