The text provides a deep dive into the internal logic of the early Soviet personality cult, including the arrangement of Stalin’s speeches and articles that defined the official narrative of Lenin’s legacy and the continuity of Bolshevik leadership. As a vital primary source, this volume documents the linguistic and political transition of the late 1930s, featuring a facsimile of Lenin’s autograph and a portrait.  This specific copy holds exceptional historical value as a \"Mandatory Control Copy\" (Обязательный контрольный экземпляр), a designation used to verify print quality, maintain state bibliography, and ensure the preservation of a complete record of Soviet printing in central archives. Such copies were typically restricted to state libraries and archives, rarely entering private collections, which adds a distinct layer of provenance and rarity to the item. Published by the Tbilisi branch of the Marx-Engels-Lenin Institute, it is an essential piece for historians of the Stalinist era, collectors of Soviet political ephemera, and scholars of Georgian printing history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44119544594474,"sku":"BOOK-STAJ-FRDA","price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_8768.jpg?v=1771873434","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/stalin-j-v-about-lenin-leninis-shesakheb-1938-in-georgian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
