Editor-in-chief: S. A. Belotsvetov. A selection from the 43 issues: 1925: Nos. 1–7/8; 1926: Nos. 20, 22–27 (a bound block in the owner’s binding); 1927: Nos. 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34 (2 copies), 35, 36, 38, 39. The magazine was conceived as a weekly publication for family reading in the tradition of pre-revolutionary illustrated magazines. Among the regular contributors were artists such as M. Dobuzhinsky, S. Vinogradov, N. Bogdanov-Belsky, and others. The author of the colorful, stylized cover, symbolizing the “echoes” of Russian culture in exile (a tree with bells on its branches, growing from foreign soil, and in the foreground—a panorama of “forty forties”), was M. Dobuzhinsky. In this 1925 collection, issues No. 1–7/8 are particularly interesting. The first issue of the magazine was published on November 8, 1925. *Perezvony* became the venue for the first publications of three of Bunin’s short stories: “The Mordovian Sarafan”—No. 2 from 1925, “The Desecrated Savior”—No. 20 from 1926, and “The Snowdrop”—No. 27 from 1926. Issue No. 20 has another bibliographic feature: there are known copies in which the supplement “Children’s Corner” No. 2 has been preserved along with the issue itself; For example, Issue No. 23 featured Alexei Remizov’s “The Chatterbox” from the book *Russian Women*, and Issue No. 25 featured his “The Cuckoo. The Tight-Fisted One.” Among the issues from 1927, No. 32 is noteworthy—a special issue dedicated to Russian Culture Day. In No. 32, for example, Ivan Ilyin’s article “On the Paths of Russia” was published. Issue No. 33 is of particular interest for the history of Russian literature and the work of Alexei Remizov: it features excerpts from his *The Dove’s Book*, including “Christ’s Godson,” “Forgotten by God,” “Those Who Have Forgotten God,” “The Underworld,” as well as “Nicholas the Pleaser” and “The Virgin Mary’s Journey Through the Purgatory.” No. 35 is of interest because of Ivan Shmelev: his “Native Land (from a lost manuscript)” was published here for the first time and was later included in a separate edition in 1931. This same issue also features Leonid Zurov’s work “The Proceeds.” No. 36 is one of the most notable artistic issues in the collection: it is dedicated to Valentin Serov and contains reproductions of his works; the descriptions of the copies specifically note the presence of color reproductions (all present). No. 38 is a special issue dedicated to Crimea; its design is attributed to Mstislav Dobuzhinsky. It also features an excerpt from Shmelev’s “In Crimea.”
