Kerzhentsev, P., and Leontiev, A. ABC of Leninism (Azbuka leninizma): Manual for City Party Schools and Self-Education.
9th stereotypical edition.
Moscow: GIZ, 1929.
233 p.: ill.; 22.2×15 cm.
In publisher’s composite illustrated binding (avant-garde photomontage).

A ninth, stereotypical edition of the canonical primer on Marxist-Leninist theory, published in 1929 for party education and self-study. The substantial number of reprints indicates the work's fundamental role in the early ideological training of Soviet cadres. This edition is particularly notable for its avant-garde binding design, executed in the photomontage technique characteristic of Soviet Constructivist book art of the 1920s. As both a political textbook and a product of revolutionary graphic design, the volume represents a significant artifact of the period's concerted effort to fuse ideological content with modernist form.
