Lithographed postcard by VojtÄ›ch Preissig 1873-1944 issued by Czechoslovak Legion soldiers who fought alongside the White Army in Siberia after WWI and controlled large stretches of the Transsiberian Railroad from 1918-19. By 1919 the Legion soldiers retreated further eastward alongside Kolchak's army while transporting the bulk of the Imperial gold reserves for the Whites. In 1920 the Czechoslovak Legion was gradually evacuated by ship from Vladivostok and over 60.000 soldiers returned to the Czechoslovak Republic. Despite the precarious conditions the Legion issued a daily newspaper using a printing press on board the train as well as numerous brochures books as well as handwritten lithographed bulletins printed in small print runs. During longer stops such as during their time in Vladivostok a printer's shop was set up outside the train and the operations significantly expanded.<br /> <br /> Preissig was an important Secessionist painter graphic artist and book designer who worked with Alfons Mucha among others. In the 1910s he taught art in the United States at the Art Students' League and Columbia University as well in Boston. While still abroad Preissig met future Czechoslovak president T. G. Masaryk and became involved in the independence movement which he supported graphically by designing posters and postcards. He returned to Prague in 1931 establishing himself not only as a leading typographer and book designer but also as a pioneering abstract artist. Following the German Occupation of Czechoslovakia Preissig became involved in the resistance editing and designing an illegal journal. He was arrested and died at Dachau in 1944. unknown
