Some of the texts presented below are very short notes, including newspaper texts. The content is of interest to understand the atmosphere and organizational issues of science in the USSR. Simultaneously, we can judge about Frumkin’s professional surrounding (which had been much wider than electrochemical). A number of texts related directly to the history of electrochemistry are marked *(more particular) or ** (more detailed).
