A rare first Russian edition of a specialized chess manual focusing on the theory of the Sicilian Defense. Published in Leningrad in 1929 by the “Shakhmatny Listok” (Chess Bulletin) organization, this volume represents the early Soviet effort to translate and disseminate foreign chess literature. The authorized translation was completed by the noted chess composer and theorist Leonid Kubbel. As a practical opening guide published with a substantial print run, it reflects the growing popularity of chess as a competitive and intellectual pursuit during the late 1920s in the USSR.
