"I read your eNewsletter about the Russian nesting dolls. How can I sell my dolls to the Russian government?"
Our answer: Sorry, the Russian government is buying new dolls from Russian families who live off the income from their craft work. The only dolls the Russian government wants are brand new, never-sold-before, products.

MATRYOSHKAS
If you collect Russian nesting dolls, a favorite souvenir, you will be delighted to learn that the Russian government will spend up to $28.4 million to buy nesting dolls ("matryoshkas" in Russian) and hand-painted dishes for the Kremlin and state agencies to give as gifts. The "stimulus" is meant to help native craftsmen, who often come from families that have been selling the dolls for years.
