Extreme UtochkinUtochkin was a real idol of the public: he made the first flight across the Odessa Bay, taking off from Alexander Park (now Shevchenko Park) and landing in Dofinivka. In addition to aviation, Utochkin was involved in almost all available sports - he was a cyclist, fencer, boxer... Odessans jokingly called him an "academician of sports". Utochkin always made a show of his flights - this is how he earned a living. In 1910, a grand exhibition opened in Odessa, and an aviator's flight over its territory was organized to entertain the public. Interestingly, the organizers of the exhibition earned 3,000 rubles from this event, and Utochkin was paid 35% of the fee. However, he was offended and did not fly over the exhibition again. This is not surprising, because Utochkin's fees were usually much higher. For example, as the winner of the air competition in Warsaw that same year, he received 17,500 francs.

The photo of an Odessa tram was taken by tourist Julien Galeotti in 1963.Material from the electronic archive of the liberation movement:

About the Shah of Persia in OdessaShah Mohammed Ali arrived in Odessa on September 10, 1909, fleeing the Persian revolution. He was given a two-story Gothic palace of Brzhozovsky on Gogol Street with 40 rooms to live in; the rent was 12,000 rubles per year and was not paid by him personally. The legend of the “shah’s harem in Odessa” is not confirmed by the press of the time: the media covered his life in detail, but did not write about the harem. In 1911, he secretly left, trying to regain the throne, and was defeated. There are references that in 1912 he was briefly returned to Odessa, but in 1913 the former ruler was no longer in the city, which contradicts later claims that he left only in 1920. Sources (not Wikipedia) are needed regarding his further movements after 1913.
