[BOR-RAMENSKY] Pamyatka krasnoarmeitsa: 1901-1902 [i.e. Memo for Red Army Man]

Tiflis: Zakkraikom RKSM, 1924. Item #181

192 pp.: ill., 1 map. 17,5х13 cm. In original illustrated wrappers. A couple of light cracks on the spine (no damage to the general condition), rusty staple is visible on the title page, red pencil mark on the front wrapper. Otherwise a very good sound and clean copy which is rare.

Very rare. 1 of 3000 copies.
Illustrations and cover by Konstantin Bor-Ramensky. His most famous work was also printed on Tiflis but later — a cover for Mayakovsky’s Youth by Vasilii Kamensky. It’s remarkable how self-taught artist could create works in this genre before it was mainstream.
