1991055868Tbilisi & Moscow: Komitet Geodeziii Kartohgrafii SSSR / Tbilisskoj Kartograficheskoj Fabrikoj 1991. No Binding. Very Good. A late Soviet map of Abkhazia published in 1991 one year before it became a free republic by the Tbilisi Cartography Factory. Scarce. One of 2150 copies. Slight stains on surface slight chippings on extremities and doodles by pen on verso otherwise a good copy. The Transcaucasian Geodetic Administration of the USSR was established in Tbilisi in 1929 with a small cartographic section. Between 1930 and 1931 it compiled a map of Transcaucasia at a scale of 1:500000 which was printed in Leningrad. The printing of maps in Tbilisi began in 1932 following the receipt of some German-made equipment. The Factory itself was officially founded in 1933 and its first major project was the compilation of a topographic atlas of Transcaucasia in 44 sheets printed in Moscow between 1934 and 1935. The factory's development accelerated in 1935 with the arrival of new equipment and the expansion of staff. However in 1936-37 it faced significant sabotage. In 1938 the factory underwent a complete reorganization with young experts taking leadership roles. Among them were engineer cartographers M. A. Pevlov N. A. Suzdal'skiy V. I. Arzamastsev and S. N. Ter-Grigorian. The printing of maps in Georgian Armenian and Azerbaijani languages became a notable achievement highlighted in Soviet literature as a key accomplishment of the factory. The factory's organizational structure included departments for Map Compilation Lithography Engraving Printing and Transfer. The Tbilisi Cartographic Factory remained active even after Perestroika continuing its work into 1991.

DJ has some wear and soiling tears and chips. 160 plates p. Includes illustrations. List of illustrations. Glossary. Table of Contents. This is a collection of broadsides by various Imperial Army officers in 1812 during the Napoleonic invasion and after Russian victories. A broadside is a large sheet of paper printed on one side only. 1 Historically broadsides were posters announcing events or proclamations or simply advertisements. Today broadside printing is done by many smaller printers and publishers as a fine art variant with poems often being available as broadsides intended to be framed and hung on the wall. The historical type of broadsides were ephemera i.e. temporary documents created for a specific purpose and intended to be thrown away. They were one of the most common forms of printed material between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries particularly in Britain Ireland and North America. They were often advertisements but could also be used for news information or proclamations. Academy of Sciences of USSR, Central State Military-Historic Archive hardcover

193780372Moscow: The People's Commissariat of Justice of the U.S.S.R. 1937. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Hardcover. Fair. 22 cm. 8 580 pages. Cover very worn and soiled. Hindges weak. Edges rubbed and corners bumped. Some moisture staining at bottom all pages separate and text complete. This second purge trial involved 17 lesser figures including Karl Radek Yuri Pyatakov and Grigory Sokolnikov. Alexander Beloborodov was also arrested and intended to be tried along with Radek but did not make the confession required of him and so he was not produced in court. Thirteen of the defendants were eventually executed by shooting. The rest received sentences in labor camps. Radek was spared as he implicated others including Nikolai Bukharin Alexei Rykov and Marshal Mikhail Tukhachevsky setting the stage for the Trial of Military and Trial of the Twenty One. Radek provided the pretext for the purge on a massive scale with his testimony that there was a "third organization separate from the cadres which had passed through Trotsky's school" as well as "semi-Trotskyites quarter-Trotskyites one-eighth-Trotskyites people who helped us not knowing of the terrorist organization but sympathizing with us people who from liberalism from a Fronde against the Party gave us this help." By the third organization he meant the last remaining former opposition group called Rightists led by Bukharin. At the time many Western observers who attended the trials said that they were fair and that the guilt of the accused had been established. They based this assessment on the confessions of the accused which were given in open court without any apparent evidence that they had been tortured or drugged. The Moscow Trials were a series of show trials held in the Soviet Union at the instigation of Joseph Stalin between 1936 and 1938 against Trotskyists and members of Right Opposition of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. There were three Moscow Trials: the Case of the Trotskyite-Zinovievite Terrorist Center Zinoviev-Kamenev Trial aka "Trial of the Sixteen" 1936 the Case of the Anti-Soviet Trotskyist Center Pyatakov-Radek Trial 1937 and the Case of the Anti-Soviet "Bloc of Rights and Trotskyites" Bukharin-Rykov Trial aka "Trial of the Twenty-One" 1938. The defendants of these were Old Bolshevik party leaders and top officials of the Soviet secret police. Most defendants were charged under Article 58 of the RSFSR Penal Code with conspiring with the Western powers to assassinate Stalin and other Soviet leaders dismember the Soviet Union and restore capitalism. The Moscow Trials led to the execution of many of the defendants. They are generally seen as part of Stalin's Great Purge an attempt to rid the party of current or prior oppositionists especially but not exclusively Trotskyists and any leading Bolshevik cadre from the time of the Russian Revolution or earlier who might even potentially become a figurehead for the growing discontent in the Soviet populace resulting from Stalin's mismanagement of the economy. Stalin's hasty industrialization during the period of the First Five Year Plan and the brutality of the forced agricultural collectivization had led to an acute economic and political crisis in 1928-33 a part of the global problem known as the Great Depression and to enormous suffering on the part of the Soviet workers and peasants. Stalin was acutely conscious of this fact and took steps to prevent it taking the form of an opposition inside the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to his increasingly totalitarian rule.
