**Información sobre el cartel:** The Kiev Contract Fair operated from 1797 to 1927. Trade and credit agreements were initially made at the fair but in its latter years, it became a simple commercial fair. While its importance diminished after the 1917 October Revolution, it ultimately ceased activity owing to anti-private ownership measures by the government.
