A few brown spots to title-page otherwise a very fine and clean copy. 52 pp. <br/><br/><em>Exceedingly rare Slovenian translation of the Communist Manifesto. This virtually unknown edition is not to be found in any bibliography nor on OCLC. The present edition of the Manifesto was printed and distributed by Agitprop the Communist Party institution that controlled education publishing libraries and mass media from the end of World War II until 1952. Presumably the present publication was among the first publications made by Agitprop. Until the end of World War II Agitprop was essentially an underground movement whose goal was to pave the way for communism after the war. After the resistance in Slovenia started in summer 1941 Italian violence against the Slovene civilian population escalated and to counter the Communist-led insurgence the Italians sponsored local anti-guerrilla units formed mostly by the local conservative Catholic Slovene population that resented the revolutionary violence of the partisans. After the Italian armistice of September 1943 the Germans took over both the Province of Ljubljana and the Slovenian Littoral. They united the Slovene anti-Communist counter-insurgence into the Slovene Home Guard and appointed a puppet regime in the Province of Ljubljana. The anti-Nazi resistance however expanded creating its own administrative structures as the basis for Slovene statehood within a new federal and socialist Yugoslavia.In 1945 Yugoslavia was liberated by the underground resistance and soon became a socialist federation known as the People's Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. Slovenia joined the federation as a constituent republic led by its own pro-Communist leadership and Agitprop became the official mass media institution.Not in OCLC </em> unknown

4089On a business trip to NYC Groucho writes a rich family letter about possible work in musicals radio and movies. To his family "Svenskie Arthur Miriam and Ma" on Sunday afternoon. Probably written between 1931 and 1932 this letter to his family in Los Angeles talks about his work and mentions many people he knew in those days but also expresses his loneliness missing his family and his home. He addresses the letter to "Svensk Arthur Miriam and Ma." It seems plausible to assume that Svensk is a nickname he called his wife Ruth Johnson as she was the daughter of a Swedish immigrant. They were married in 1920 their son Arthur was born in 1921 and their daughter Miriam was born in 1927. Groucho's mother Minnie died in September of 1929 so it seems likely that his reference to "Ma" would be his mother-in-law. Â The Marx family moved to Los Angeles in 1931. According to "Groucho Marx and Other Short Stories and Tall Tales." edited by Robert S. Bader Groucho first met Arthur Sheekman in Chicago during the run of "Animal Crackers." Sheekman was a columnist for the Chicago Times. Before working on "Duck Soup" Sheekman moved to New York in 1932 to work on Groucho and Chico's radio show "Flywheel Shyster & Flywheel." Groucho begins by describing New York being nostalgic for California and wishing his family was with him. "This is Sunday afternoon a particularly gloomy Sunday too." He mentions walking in Central Park saying "how I miss the green grass and the trees. thing that would drive me crazy about living in the city. Nothing to look at but stone and asphalt and nothing to smell but carbon monoxide" Â He tells his family news of his work and social life. "Am still working on the radio script and although I don't think it's too good we will probably audition it. if we get it too smart the sponsors nor the public understand it if it isn't smart enough we don't like it so there you are." He seems to be referring to the radio show he was trying to create with Chico which eventually became "Flywheel Shyster & Flywheel" for Standard Oil's "Five Star Theatre" on the air from 1932-33. Â "Had dinner last night with Hecht" he says referring to Ben Hecht the screenwriter who was a friend and writing partner of Charles MacArthur who Groucho also mentions. Further discussing Hecht "We are trying to get him to do an outline for either a play or a movie. we have definitely abandoned the first Sherwood and Hart idea." here referring to the collaborators of musicals Robert E. Sherwood and Moss Hart whose "Miss Liberty" came out in 1949. Â Further to colleagues and friends "I am going with Sheekman and Perrin and the Goodmans and the Bennys to Lea Sachs for dinner. Last Friday I was out with Ross Harold. Luchow's. food was fair but the beer was superb." Arthur Sheekman as mentioned above and Nat Perrin were writers who wrote "Duck Soup" 1933 for the Marx Brothers. Groucho became a close friend of Sheekman's and in 1967 edited "The Groucho Letters." See "Monkey Business: The Lives and Legends of the Marx Brothers" by Simon Louvish pages 129-130. He also refers to Harold Ross editor of "The New Yorker." Â Groucho spends much of the letter talking about missing his family and wanting them to arrange to come to New York as soon as they can. He says he wants them to come when he gets "something definite." His emotion for his family shows throughout "I hope my little sweetheart has completely recovered from her fall. I look at the pictures every day and getting increasingly lonesome." He refers to the troubles Chico and his wife Betty were having by stating that "Betty is returning to California next Sunday.". The letter is signed with great love and devotion not at all close to how he might feel one day when in 1942 he and Ruth are divorced. "Kiss yourself and Arthur and Miriam for me and love to you all from your ever lovin man Groucho" then signed in pencil "Groucho." He writes in pencil "Did you cut down the vines" and signs again "Love - Groucho." Two holograph corrections in the body of the letter in pencil. unknown books
