The Khodynka airport is the unofficial name. Official name of this airport in the USSR was "Центральный аэропорт имени Фрунзе" (central airport named after Mikhail Frunze).

I own a mug from the Khodyka tragedy. My late grandmother, Molly Pym (nee Anderson) visited Moscow as a young woman befor WWI. I assume that she acquired the enamel mug and also a Russian Icon of Christ as momentos of her visit.

Recently I saw a Khodynka mug featured on the UK television series, "The Antiques Roadshow". Their expert valued the mug at around US $750. I would be interested to hear from other owners of Khodynka mugs, and learn of how they acquired them.
