| | Russian Blue-piont |
 | | A Traditional Russian Blue was shown at the first cat show in 1871 at the Crystal palace in London, under the name, "Archangel Cat", in a class for all short haired blue cats, despite obvious differences in type. |
 | | When the Traditional Russian Blue first came out of its native country it differed strickingly from the Traditional Turkish Angora and the Traditional Persian (Doll Face), who were the other long-haired breeds existent at the time, by having a larger body and shorter legs. |
 | | When Russians were judged as Russians, it won well at shows, so you may like to have a description of the cat, which is, I believe, a correct one, according to several authorities on Russian Cats. |
