The silver coat of arms, this distinctive sign of the students of the pre-revolutionary men's gymnasium, the boys wore on their uniform caps.
The hero of the story is unfairly expelled from the gymnasium and deprived of his precious insignia. The carefree, full of pranks student everyday life is being replaced by a completely different life: vagrancy, job searches, new friends and enemies - everything that represents a street in a colorful multinational southern city of the late 19th century.
The autobiographical story "The Silver Emblem" was written by K.I. Chukovsky in 1938.
