At the end of the 1920s, N. I. Porkhunov designed the architectural complex of the MOPR International Children's Home in Ivanovo [1] . The building was built in the style of constructivism and from a bird's eye view resembles a sickle and a hammer [2] .

He was fond of the philocarty from his youth and collected a collection of 80 thousand postcards with views of the settlements of the USSR. The collection was stored in 400 albums on shelves in the apartment. There were rare copies of the beginning of the XX century, issued in small runs. During restoration and reconstruction, the architects of Kiev turned to the Porkhunov collection to see the appearance of buildings and the history of the city’s development, because it had 11 albums with views of the architectural monuments and ensembles of Kiev, its streets and squares [8] . After the death of the architect, his collection went to the hands of various owners [9] .
