He was trading artifacts for family in the gulags, and the gulags were around from the 30s to the 50s. He was known to be an agent in '79, as mentioned in the episode that had Claudia's birthday. And in "A Touch of Fever", which takes place in 2011, Artie was said to have been in the Warehouse for either at least, or nearly, 40 years. 2011-40=1971, which means he could have been an agent before '78, but since I cannot watch all the episodes yet, I can't be sure.

My apologies, I meant to say 1978, not '73.
