"The price paid by American people": a fine Soviet book pulished in English in the wake of the Great Depression. With extensive photomontage; a very good copy of the first edition, rare complete with both supplements.
A rare gathering of essays and articles considering which future Ukraine should reach, written by a major figure of newly created Ukrainian state, published in the famous year of 1917. Rarely found, and here in fantastic condition in spite of their fragility.
A fine, large book-themed poster from the young USSR, with slogans such as "Reading is needed to know how to beat the ennemies of the working class". In superb condition.
Bulgakov's masterpiece in its entirety, complete with the famous dust-jacket. A very good copy, fresh internally. This is the 1971 second printing.
Extremely rare provincial publication in the aftermath of the Civil War - a choice copy with the striking cover coloured and a double inscription to its artist.
Great design for a postcard of typical economic propaganda, by a Communist enthusiast and victim of Stalin.

Rozovaia azbuka [Rose (also Pink) ABC]
Only edition of this fine, large-format primer detailing the new Soviet orthography of Russian, illustrated by a master of the genre. A fragile production just after the Russian revolution, and a rare edition.

Important little book announcing Lenin and the Russian Revolution. First separate edition, scarce, and here in an attractive binding, rather unusual for this type of text.
"Political anti-Semitism', to be distinguished from a racial one: first edition of this scarce work, which also gives an account of the situation of the Jews in Russia.
LINSKII, Mikhail, Mikhail DRIZO (pseud. MAD), Arkadii AVERCHENKO and others
Bich. Bitche [Whip]
Complete set of this scarce satirical periodical of the Russophone community in Paris. With a wealth of caricatural drawings and wide-ranging texts.
[LENIN, pseud.:] Vladimir ILIN [pseud. for Vladimir Ilyich ULIANOV]
Razvitie kapitalizma v Rossii. Protsess obrazovaniia vnutrenniago rynka dlia krupnoi promyshlennosti [The Development of Capitalism in Russia. The Process of Formation of a Home Market for Large-Scale Industry]
First edition of Lenin's first substantial work, and one of his first two books published in 1899. A landmark economic analysis.
Rather objective historical analysis of the Russian political plots around Tsar Nicholas II before the revolution. A fine example of the first edition.
ESENIN, Sergei, with Boris PASTERNAK, Andrei BELII et al
Iav. Stikhi [Reality. Poems]
Exceptional association copy of these scandalous Russian imaginist poems, extensively inscribed by three co-authors – including Esenin - to a fourth one, Alexander Olenin. With Aristarkh Lentulov's striking cover bound in a very unusual cloth-and-wicker binding of the time. One of the best, if not the best example of this famous book of Russian poetry.
