LEBEDEV, Vladimir.

Inquire · Offered by Peter Harrington

Azbuka. First edition of Lebedev's pioneering Constructivist ABC book, a landmark of Soviet children's book design. Lebedev helped revolutionize Russian children's literature, here abandoning fairytale fantasy for a wordless alphabet of everyday objects and tools: a primer for the proletarian child in the new Soviet reality.
