Stamp of the Russian Mutual Aid Society of America. Tear along edge of back cover hinge.. The first book published by the R.F.K.P.A. ( a small group of American Communists of Russian origin). This work is a response to Kautskii's polemical work "The Dictatorship of the Proletariat (published Vienna, 1918)," which Lenin took as an almost personal insult. Kautskii's work was banned and the present work was issued and distributed free of charge to all of Russia's libraries and reprinted in every conceivable language beginning in 1920. This edition was printed in an edition of about 1000 copies and distributed by Max Maisel; most of the copies were warehoused due to slow sales. In the mid-50's N. Martinoff bought Maisel's stock and sent most of the Marxist publications to a paper mill. The present edition is mentioned in a Soviet publication about Lenin's rarest editions. .
