In the remotest corner (chuckchi art). ~ There is a tendency for the European art~lover to think of art solely in terms of the western tradition, and there could be no more admirable corrective to such a view than this book. Realisation of both the extent and quality of nonEuropean art has been steadily growing. Not only is it valued for itself but it has increasingly influenced European forms. Whether it be Primitive art, Byzantine or the sophisticated Japanese style~all have had a profound effect on western art, especially since the time of the Impressionists. It can almost be claimed that the whole recent revolution in art stems from this influence. However, there is still a great ignorance of the art of Asia. The value of the present book is in the fact that it deals largely with works which are unfamiliar, though of undoubted value and quality, even to those acquainted with Asian art. The book recommends itself on many counts, besides the important one of introducing the reader to whole new fields. It has a wide scope and variety ~ the subject matter ranging from the bronzes of the Luristan shepherds to the bone carvings of the remote Chuckchi. The art of the ten cultural regions dealt with is in each case discussed by an expert and more than 300 pages of superb illustrations enable the reader to get an authentic idea of fine specimens of the product of each culture. Altogether a book which will open up new vistas for the connoisseur, while providing a fascinating insight into unknown or unfamiliar worlds for the art amateur and general reader.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Fair. In Russian. 68 x 46 cm. Issue of 6 pages. Yellow and brittle. 2 leaves have broken up into segments, where they were folded. Rech was the main Kadet (constitutional Democratic) Party newspaper. Petrograd, 5 January 1917 (No. 4 / 3746). It appeared at the very end of Imperial Russia, only weeks before t…he February Revolution. Its orientation: liberal, constitutionalist, anti-autocratic and pro-Western. Heavy with advertisements, theatrical notices, cultural announcements, short political commentary, military news from the Eastern Front, and debates about government reform, censorship, supply shortages, and the conduct of the war. Page 1: largely advertisements for theatres (Korchagin, Yermolova, Tarasova), educational courses, and various goods and services, book announcement for the "Rech Almanac for 1916," and notices from printing houses and editors. Small column references parliamentary affairs, including criticism of bureaucratic obstructionism. Page 2: the main editorial sections, The Press, surveys reactions in other Russian and foreign newspapers. The editorial stresses dissatisfaction with the government's inability to manage military production, food supply, and civic freedoms. The "News of the Day" section summarizes diplomatic developments, Allied activities, domestic ministerial appointments, and social affairs. Small notes cover Poland, Galicia, and the Balkans-reflecting ongoing wartime territorial concerns. Several articles criticize the slowness of reforms and indecision within the Tsarist ministries. Page 3: The main wartime section, The War. Reports summarizing fighting on the Russian Western, Northern, Romanian, and Caucasian fronts. Battlefield summaries, troop-movement updates, reports of Austro-German activity, and statements issued by the Russian General Staff. Romania's difficulties are noted. Section titled Latest News summarizing last-minute political developments, public meetings, and Petrograd municipal notices. Much of the news concerns supply shortages, transport problems, and the difficult winter of 1916-1917. Page 4: continues domestic political and social reports. Discussions about the State Duma, bureaucratic conflicts, grain regulation, shortages of bread and fuel, difficulties in provincial administration, and debates regarding oversight committees. The tone reflects growing frustration: incompetent ministers, food supply failures, censorial interference, and local mismanagement. Note about cultural matters, including provincial theatre and charity events. Page 5: political commentary with cultural reporting. Header: Russian Life, groups short items concerning society, education, public lectures, investigations into administrative abuses, and social welfare. "Chronicle" items discuss economic difficulties, small-scale corruption, minor disasters, and judicial proceedings. Several articles discuss church matters and state oversight of education. Page 6: Dominated by ads: medical practitioners, dentists, ophthalmologists, private clinics, rental rooms, auctions, classified ads, and commercial goods. Large ad for "Pasilles Valda," and practical ads for apartments, boarding schools, courses, typewriters, watches, and provisions. Also: currency tables, commercial notices, and lottery results. Nothings specifying Jews, however: Small articles relate to developments in Poland, Galicia, and the Southwestern Front. These were areas with large Jewish populations. While no Jewish communities are mentioned, any material concerning administration, war conditions, or political changes in these regions implicitly affected Jews. The article "Польский вопрос" (The Polish Question) discusses Polish self-governance negotiations. This debate was highly relevant to Jewish civil-rights questions in the region, even though the article itself does not mention Jews. Rech' was the leading liberal party newspaper pushing for equality before the law. . . .

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Fair. In Russian. 68 x 46 cm. Pages are yellow and brittle. Four pages (pages 3,4,5,6) of issue of Речь (Rech, "Speech"), published in Petrograd (St. Petersburg), Saturday, 23 September 1917 (Old Style), just weeks before the October Revolution. Affiliation: Constitutional-Democratic (Kadet) Party - liberal,… pro-parliamentary. This issue appears during the turbulent interval between the failed Kornilov coup (August 1917) and the Bolshevik seizure of power (October 1917 O.S.), when the Provisional Government under Kerensky was trying to rebuild authority. Page 3 - Political and Government News. Main headline: "Совещание о реконструкции власти" "Conference on Reconstruction of Power." Reports detail deliberations in Petrograd among ministers, party delegates, and soviet representatives on reshaping the Provisional Government after the Kornilov affair. The tone urges unity and legality to prevent civil war. "Выборы в Учредительное Собрание" "Elections to the Constituent Assembly." "Discussion of the upcoming national election. Речь defends constitutional order and universal suffrage, warning extremists on both right and left not to derail the vote. Editorial theme: Reaffirmation that Russia's salvation lies in lawful representative institutions, not in soviet dictatorship or military command. 2. War Reports and Foreign Dispatches. Section "Война" "The War."Short communiqués from the South-Western, Northern, and Romanian Fronts mention sporadic skirmishes, but emphasize defensive stability and declining German morale. Telegrams from London and Paris: Allied commentary on Russia's political crisis; cautious optimism that order is returning under Kerensky. Headline: "Официальное сообщение союзных правительств" "Official Statement of the Allied Governments," affirming continued recognition of the Provisional Government. 3. Domestic Affairs and Society. Columns discuss grain supply shortages, the railway workers' congress, and appeals to cooperatives to prevent famine. Articles criticize Bolshevik agitators for spreading defeatism and inflaming workers against moderate socialists. Reports on factory committees in Petrograd seeking to balance workers' control with management efficiency - typical liberal-reformist framing. Based on their names, some of the delegates or contributors, such as A. L. Gurevich or I. L. Perelman, are Jewish. 4. Political Commentary and Columns. "Центрофлотъ и правительство" "The Central Fleet Committee and the Government" analyzes friction between sailors and naval command. Речь supports civil authority over revolutionary committees, warning of naval mutiny risk. "Предпарламент" "Pre-Parliament" explains plans to convene an all-party council as a bridge to the future Constituent Assembly - a key Kadet initiative. Editorials attack Lenin's absentee leadership and his calls for an armed uprising, portraying Bolshevism as a threat to Russia's democratic experiment. 5. Culture, Theater, and Literature. Section "Театръ и литература" reviews new Petrograd productions, including Chekhov revivals and patriotic stage plays. Advertisements announce upcoming concerts, book releases, and public lectures. A small ad lists a Jewish choral evening and a lecture on Biblical music at the "People's House." Another notice mentions the publisher "Еврейское издательство" "Jewish Publishing House" offering new Yiddish and Russian-language works. 6. Chronicle and Local News. Under "Хроника" "Chronicle": reports of robberies, fires, shortages, and municipal decisions by the Petrograd City Duma. Items from Kazan, Moscow, and the South describe strikes, rural unrest, and relief measures. 7. Tone and Political Outlook Liberal, rational, and anti-extremist. Stresses discipline, constitutionalism, and moderation amid revolution. Deep anxiety about state collapse but continued faith in parliamentary democracy.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Poor. In Russian. 2 pages. 66 x 52 cm. Pages are yellow and brittle. Minor chipping with very minor loss of text. Two pages of the liberal Petrograd daily День (Den, "The Day"), dated Thursday, December 17, 1915 (Old Style). Orientation: Liberal, reformist, sympathetic to the Constitutional Democratic (Kadet…) viewpoint. The paper appeared during the second full winter of World War I, when Russia was reeling from defeats on the Eastern Front and facing food shortages, political disillusionment, and unrest in the Duma. Contents: Political Situation and Government Crisis. The lead article, "The Budget of the Ministry of Internal Affairs", criticizes the government's wartime administration and police system. The writer condemns bureaucratic waste, corruption, and arbitrary censorship. Special attention is paid to the police's repression of civic groups under pretext of national security. The tone is liberal, calling for "public oversight and legality" in governance. Criticism is directed at bureaucratic incompetence. A parallel editorial, "Life and Politics", argues that the Duma's moderate parties must remain united to pressure the Tsar's government into creating a "responsible ministry" - an early parliamentary cabinet. It laments that the autocracy has lost credibility with the public. 2. Foreign and War Reports. Sections titled "From the Western Front" and "On the Italian Front" describe: The positional stalemate of late 1915; Ongoing Austro-German offensives against Serbia; Russian efforts to stabilize lines near Baranovichi and the Dvina; Allied cooperation in the Balkans. Tone is factual, non-propagandistic, showing the paper's reputation for seriousness. An unsigned military correspondent calls for better coordination between the Russian and British commands, warning that morale at home depends on visible unity. 3. Domestic Affairs and Society. A long column on urban provisioning details shortages of flour, sugar, and fuel in Petrograd. Municipal committees are praised for fairness, while black-market profiteers are denounced. Another piece, "City Dumas", explains how local self-government tries to protect the poor from inflation. The issue notes new sanitary and charity initiatives organized by private associations - including several Jewish philanthropic committees (e.g.,"отворительное общество"), which are said to cooperate with municipal relief efforts for wounded soldiers and refugees. This is the only reference to Jews, and it is respectful and civic-minded. 4. Literature and Commentary. The literary pages contain: The continuation of a sentimental story titled "Mother and Daughter", describing a woman's endurance during wartime separation; A reflective column "On the German Spirit", examining the philosophy of obedience in German culture and contrasting it with Russian moral individualism; The review column "The Press", summarizing positions of other newspapers - Novoe Vremya, Rech, Russkie Vedomosti - emphasizing the growing consensus for government reform. Stylistically, Den' uses careful, educated Russian; religious vocabulary is minimal, and there are no nationalist or racial appeals. 5. Culture and Advertising. Advertisements along the left column include notices for: The art journal Letopis' Khudozhestvennoi Zhizni ("Chronicle of Artistic Life"); A literary anthology edited by Maxim Gorky; Subscription offers for 1916 editions of Letopis' and Russkoe Slovo. Commercial ads promote sewing machines, insurance, and phonographs - a window into middle-class consumer life during wartime. 6. Tone and Outlook. The overall mood is sober but reformist. Politically, the paper pleads for constitutionalism and civic discipline. Morally, it appeals to readers' sense of duty, compassion, and rational progress. Religiously and ethnically, it is inclusive - no anti-Jewish, anti-Polish, or xenophobic elements appear.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Fair. In Russian. 6 pages. Complete. 68 x 46 cm. Rech (Речь) No. 197 (3939). Petrograd, Wednesday, 23 August (5 September) 1917. This issue of Rech, the central newspaper of the Constitutional Democratic Party (Kadets), covers Russia at a moment of extreme political instability, following the July Days and d…uring the unfolding Kornilov Affair. Themes: defense of the Provisional Government, danger of military adventurism, fragile state of society, army, the economy. P.1: Commentary on the crisis between General Lavr Kornilov and Alexander Kerensky. Editorials question reliability of military command, the danger of reactionary conspiracies, need to protect constitutional order. Several pieces re: urgency of unity among democratic forces, warning that the military's political intrusion jeopardizes the Revolution. "News of the Day" outlines government statements, telegrams from various ministers, analysis of troop movements around Petrograd. Ads: courses, lectures, legal notices, schools (including girls' gymnasiums), medical offices, and community announcements. P. 2: WAR section: reports from the fronts, logistical problems, desertion, breakdown in transport, Allied situation. Reports re German operations near Riga, difficulties of maintaining discipline, political agitation in regiments. Focus on the moral collapse of certain parts of the army and the pressure placed on officers, alongside discussions of new government circulars and disciplinary measures. P. 3: "Latest News": internal political developments, dispatches, civil-administrative actions, labor disputes, strikes in factories, meetings of soldiers' committees, transportation failures, agricultural shortages, accelerating inflation. Commentary on events in: Siberia, the Volga, the Caucasus, and Ukraine. P. 4: political essays: the State Duma's role, society's responsibility, the elections to local municipal dumas, the church's position in the emerging state system, debates about the future constitution of Russia. Column re separation of Church and State and the restructuring of ecclesiastical administration, another: food distribution and price regulation. P. 5: Financial/Stock Exchange Chronicle, provincial correspondence, cultural notes, theater announcements, notices re crimes, accidents, and personal reports. Many reference shortages, petty disputes, and political arrests. P. 6: primarily advertisements and educational announcements: Pokrovsky Courses, stenography schools, women's gymnasiums, private institutes, medical specialists, lawyers, room rentals, real-estate notices, and accounting courses. This page was a revenue-producing supplement. Contains almost no political text. The issue presents a country in acute crisis: army disintegrating, Provisional Government weakened, threat from the right (Kornilov), supply chains collapsing. No explicit article relating to Jews. Some ads reference schools or courses open to "all confessions". This implicitly includes Jews. Jews could legally attend many private courses after March 1917. Such ads indicate the growing integration of Jews into mainstream urban education after the fall of the Pale. Economic notices relevant to Jews: "Биржевая хроника" includes trading and commodity notes (grain, sugar, tea, foreign exchange). Because Jewish merchants made up a significant portion of grain brokers in 1917 Petrograd, these items indirectly concern Jewish economic participation, though Jews are not mentioned. There are references to: The debate over separation of Church and State "the country and the church"). This debate directly affected Jewish civil equality. Municipal elections: After the February Revolution, Jews could vote and run in Petrograd elections for the first time; thus, these sections have major relevance to Jews even though the text does not explicitly state "Jewish voters.".

Advertise New Year performances, manufacturers of machinery, cigar…ettes, clothing, etc. Text-heavy ads. Inside pages carry political commentary and news. A major column explains changes in the Russian government, including ministerial resignations and appointments and the continuing struggle between the Duma's liberal opposition and the autocracy. The paper reprints official communiqués alongside editorial glosses that stress responsibility, public confidence and the need for effective leadership at the front and in the rear. In the "Russian Life" section, domestic stories range from legal and administrative disputes to reports on governors, zemstvo affairs, church matters and the functioning of courts and municipalities. Urban topics such as provisioning, bread supply and the rising cost of living appear repeatedly in notes that hint at deepening wartime strain. A large central section titled "War" assembles dispatches from the Supreme Headquarters and various fronts. On the Western and Southwest fronts Russian troops conduct local offensives, artillery duels and reconnaissance; communiqués emphasize repulsed enemy attacks and the capture of prisoners. Sub-sections summarize events on the Romanian, Macedonian and Italian fronts and at sea. German and Austro-Hungarian actions are described via enemy communiqués, including bombardments, air raids and submarine warfare. Brief items mention the Balkans, Greece and diplomatic maneuvers such as ultimatums and negotiations, underscoring the multi-front character of the conflict. The "News of the Day," gathers short telegraphed notes: parliamentary debates in Allied countries, cabinet crises, speeches by foreign ministers and presidents, and the internal situation in neutral and enemy states.

This Magazine Playcare. (CARE # 12).
Editors: Bart Boumans & students from the academy of arts in Enchede, Holland.
Verlag: This is a fantasticc mailart project. This seems to be the 12th mailart magazine.

It seems from the text that this is one part of this mailart project. With the magazine comes a very nice envelope. Two Playboy rabbits are screenprinted in red on the back.

Front page: advertisements, cultural notices, and short political commentary. Ads: theaters, lectures, ballets, concerts, professional services, the University Circus, music…lectures, artistic exhibitions, tailoring shops, medical specialists, sewing machines, and the activities of various lecture societies. The central news portion on the front page "News of the Day": short reports on domestic and foreign political developments. Topics: battlefield conditions on the Eastern Front, logistics of wartime provisioning, crop and grain summary reports, disruptions in the economy, and commentary on government ministries. There is also material on parliamentary sessions and questions of civil administration, including the functioning of the State Duma, municipal decisions, and the press. Pages 2-3 are dominated by war news under the large heading WAR. This section compiles dispatches from the fronts: Russian troop movements, engagements with Austro-German forces, strategic withdrawals and re-alignments, reports from Galicia and Volhynia, and attempts to stabilize positions after the heavy losses of the 1915 summer retreat. There are also foreign military bulletins summarizing German and Austrian communiqués, Balkan developments, and the political positioning of Romania, Bulgaria, and Greece. Casualty counts, wounded personnel statistics, and POW movements are included. "Official communications of the Supreme Headquarters" provide the government line on the war's progress. Interspersed are short domestic items: economic difficulties, railway bottlenecks, harvest output, the provision of troops, industrial output of military factories, shortages of goods, rising prices, and food distribution problems in Petrograd and Moscow. There are debates on education during wartime, petitions to ministries, draft exemptions, and labor issues. One section discusses the transfer of enemy-alien property and the sale of confiscated goods, reflecting the broader anti-German measures in the empire.

Some reports concern banking, local government petitions, and church matters. There are also minor reports concerning censorship decisions and the printing trade.

Ads dominate the bottom half - medical remedies, phonographs, storage facilities, auctions, picture-frame shops, stenography courses, legal services, and other wartime-proof businesses. Short columns cover public health, shortages of physicians, the rationing of medical supplies, mobilization-related administrative changes, and the functioning of postal and telegraph services.

The program includes: Performances by well-known Jewish composers and cantorial-style arrangements. Instrumental pieces derived from synagogue tradition. Vocal works rooted in Ashkenazic folk themes.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Fair. In Russian. 6 pages. Complete. 68 x 46 cm. Pages are brittle and have broken up into several sections along the folds. This is an issue of Rech, "speech", published in Petrograd (St. Petersburg), 24 August (O.S.) 6 Sept. (N.S.) 1917. No. 198 (3940) Rech, a major Kadet (Constitutional Democrat) liberal…newspaper of Petrograd, reflects the turbulent political atmosphere between the February and October Revolutions. P.1 is mostly advertisements, public notices, legal announcements, course offerings, sanatorium ads, commercial schools, and insurance notices-typical for Rech, which often placed heavy advertising on Page 1. Major news begins on Page 2, focusing on the political crisis, the debates within the Provisional Government, and tensions between moderate socialists, liberals, and radical elements. Several articles discuss the upcoming session of the Democratic Conference, attempts to restructure government authority, and the eroding credibility of the Provisional Government. There is extensive commentary on Landowner Associations, military committees, and local political organizations adjusting to wartime shortages, agricultural uncertainty, and breakdowns of administrative authority. A large section covers war fronts, including operations on the Northern, Western, Southwestern, Romanian, and Caucasian fronts. Reports stress troop exhaustion, supply problems, desertion, and political agitation. The military command repeatedly warns of the deterioration of discipline following the failure of the June Offensive and the July Days unrest in Petrograd. Another significant block discusses Petrograd municipal affairs, including elections to the City Duma, workers' demands, shortages of bread, transport disruptions, and the expansion of municipal welfare. Letters to the editor complain about mismanagement, profiteering, bureaucratic incompetence, and price inflation. The "Telegrams" and "News of the Day" sections summarize nationwide disturbances-strikes, peasant land seizures, local elections, grain procurement conflicts, soldier mutinies, and political arrests. Rural reports describe peasants refusing taxes, occupying estates, disarming police, and forming committees outside central authority. There is substantial coverage of the Sukhomlinov case, referring to former War Minister Vladimir Sukhomlinov, tried for failures contributing to Russia's early defeats. Discussions focus on procedural controversies, witness statements, and the public's demand for accountability. Cultural sections include theater news, publication notices, and advertisements for educational institutions-particularly women's gymnasiums, commercial schools, evening accounting classes, mechanical-engineering courses, and dental programs. A large portion of the final page contains advertisements for shoes, industrial machines, medical remedies, and financial notices. The issue portrays a country in deep disorder-military collapse, administrative paralysis, partisan struggles, and widespread mistrust of authority. The Provisional Government appears fragmented; soldiers and workers are radicalized; peasants are defying landowners; and the state's mechanisms are breaking down. Yet the tone remains cautious, liberal, and reformist rather than revolutionary, consistent with Rech's Kadet orientation. There is apparently no Jewish related material at all in this issue.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Fair. The eight pages of Rech, "Speech", No. 1 (3743), 1 January 1917, Petrograd-Moscow edition. 68 x 60 cm. This New Year's Day 1917 issue of the liberal-constitutional newspaper RECH presents a mixture of political news, war reporting, social commentary, economic notices, cultural listings, and extensive c…ommercial advertising, characteristic of large Russian metropolitan dailies during the late Imperial period. The front page is almost entirely advertisements: subscription notices for magazines, announcements of exhibitions, theater events, professional courses, banking institutions, and technical services. The diversity of advertisers - engineering firms, corset manufacturers, legal consultants, medical specialists, theaters, and bookstores - reveals the paper's affluent urban readership. A prominent theme is the upcoming year 1917, highlighted with subscription campaigns for journals ("New Satirikon", "Journal of Journals", agricultural periodicals, women's magazines, and bank bulletins). The ads reflect a society still functioning commercially despite the strains of the world war. Inside pages shift from advertisements to dense editorial content. A major political reflection piece appears on page 3: a long analytical article reviewing the political and constitutional developments of 1916, discussing the Duma, ministerial instability, wartime governance, and demands for reform. The tone is critical but constitutionalist, emphasizing the need for lawful government and responsive administration. War coverage occupies major space. Pages 4-5 contain the section BOINA (War), reporting military movements on the various fronts of the Eastern and Romanian theaters. The text describes artillery duels, reconnaissance operations, aviation activity, and notes from Allied fronts. An additional section "Последния известия" (Latest News) provides short, rapid-fire telegram-type updates from capitals including Petrograd, Stockholm, Bucharest, and Athens. These include cabinet reshufflings, frontier skirmishes, and diplomatic notes. Domestic political life is reviewed extensively. There are summaries of local zemstvo congress meetings, ministerial appointments, and bureaucratic changes. Personnel movements in ministries, courts, and provincial governorships are recorded in official style. One long article examines the composition of the State Council (Государственный Совет), the tensions between its elected and appointed members, and highlights calls for modernization and more responsive governance. The "Chronicle" and "Russian Life" sections present short items: urban fires, notable deaths, charity initiatives, institutional meetings, social disturbances, and cultural listings. A segment on the theater and music world provides notices of performances, premieres, and reviews - Teatr Komissarzhevskoy, Maly Theatre programs, and others. The newspaper also includes technical-industrial information: transportation prices, agricultural research notices, mechanical inventions, and professional training courses (accounting, stenography, mechanics, optical work, and bookkeeping schools). Many ads target women - cosmetics, corsets, sewing machines, and "Women's Business Magazine." Overall, the paper reflects a society still deeply engaged in commerce, culture, and public debate, even as war pressures accumulate. The editorial sections show unease with governmental paralysis and administrative incompetence - foreshadowing the profound collapse that would come only weeks later. Yet the advertisements and practical announcements show a bourgeois public still striving for normality at the beginning of 1917.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Poor. In Russian. 4 pages (of 8 printed), 67 x 56 cm. of the daily newspaper Rech, (=Speech), published in Petrograd. 4 surviving pages (1,2,7,8)of Речь (Rech), Issue №224 (3966), Saturday 23 September (6 October) 1917. They present a dense cross-section of political news, wartime updates, social development…s, cultural life, economic fluctuations, and many advertisements that vividly capture Petrograd's unsettled atmosphere during the late Provisional Government period. The coverage reflects a city living through political uncertainty, military strain, food shortages, and speculative markets, while still maintaining the routines of professional life, medical practice, commerce, and the arts. Page 1 is dominated by the bold headline announcing the "Liberty Loan" (Заем Свободы) and the promise of a printed 6th list of subscribers who contributed 25,000 rubles or more. Surrounding the announcement are advertisements for medical specialists, teachers, private clinics, dentists, musicians, laundries, photographers, tailors, boarding schools, and small commercial services. Some ads were clearly placed by Jewish residents of Petrograd: the small-box notice for БЕНЯКИ, explicitly marked "(Евр.)", abbreviation of the word Jewish in Russian, and a prominent cultural listing for a "Concert of Jewish Folk Music". These indicate Jewish participation in the urban cultural economy and the visibility of Jewish identity in public advertising. Page 2 is the heart of the newspaper's political reporting. The central block is titled "Известия за день" (News of the Day) and contains itemized reports from Petrograd, the Provisional Government, military fronts, and foreign capitals. Articles discuss grain supply problems, the sugar monopoly debate, labor unrest, and questions of governmental authority. Another section, "Печать" (The Press), summarizes and critiques the positions of competing newspapers - particularly Bolshevik organs - on coalition politics, military discipline, and the looming constitutional debates. These pieces display the Kadet-aligned tone of Rech, wary of extremism and anxious about the government's instability. There is no explicit Jewish political content in these central columns. Page 7 is one of the most information-heavy surviving pages. It contains the Sixth List of Liberty Loan Subscribers, arranged by city, region, occupation, and family name. The close-ups reveal a substantial presence of Jewish contributors, though the listings themselves are not labeled by ethnicity. Clearly Jewish surnames - such as Шапиро (Shapiro), Гофман (Hoffman), Шварц (Shvarts/Schwarz), Ландсдорф (Landsdorf), and Бергер - appear among donors from Petrograd, Odessa, and provincial centers. This page also contains the physician directory (Врачебный указатель), in which at least three doctors carry unmistakably Jewish surnames: Абеврух (Abevrukh/Averbuch), Розовский (Rozovsky), and Беренблит (Berenblit), indicating active Jewish participation in the city's medical professions. Page 8 consists primarily of classified advertisements, business listings, machinery sales, industrial equipment suppliers, apartment rentals, job offers, technical schools, commercial announcements, and small-type municipal notices. None of the ads on this page explicitly reference Jewish identity, though some surnames could hypothetically be Jewish; the page as a whole is economic and utilitarian in character. These four pages illustrate a city in political flux yet still fully functioning: government deliberations, wartime strain, contentious economic controls, and a broad urban marketplace. Jewish presence is most visible in culture (concert ads), commerce (a self-identified Jewish service provider), philanthropy (numerous Liberty Loan subscribers), and medicine (Jewish doctors in the professional directory), embedding the Jewish community firmly within Petrograd's civic and professional fabric at this moment just weeks before the October Revolution.

Only one Jewish-related item: ad for actress/singer on p. 1, left side, mid-column, boxed advertisement announcing a performance of Marya (Mary) Dmitrievna Mintz. Mintz one of the most common Jewish surnames in the Russian Empire, associated with Litvak-Jewish families. "Мэри Дмитриевна Минц, вечеръ. Казанская ул., д. 45-56. (въ 1-й Дух. Академии), подъѣздъ № 2." translation: Мэри Дмитриевна Минц Mary Dmitrievna Mintz Вечеръ = An evening performance / A soirée. Kazanskaya Street, houses 45-56." (This venue location; Kazanskaya Street is in central Petrograd near Nevsky Prospekt.) 4. (въ 1-й Дух. Академии), подъѣздъ № 2. "(in the 1st Ecclesiastical Academy), entrance No. 2" (The 1st Ecclesiastical Academy was a known building used for lectures, concerts, and evening cultural events.) Notes: such ads signal a theatrical/musical evening by a known performer. Jewish artists were frequent in Petrograd performing circles in 1916, though systemic discrimination limited opportunities. Troitsky Theater A short-lived Petrograd venue active only during 1915-1917, often featuring avant-garde productions. Cinizelli Circus. One of the most famous circuses in Imperial Russia. Ads from Cinizelli are collected internationally because the building still stands. It hosted legendary performers. The bldg. still stands. The ARGUS Publishing House. Active briefly before the Revolution, issuing modernist and Symbolist literature. The ad for Mary Dmitrievna Mintz (Jewish performer): Jewish performing artists of the late Imperial era are actively researched. Mintz does not appear in the most common encyclopedias, so this ad might be the only surviving printed reference to a minor Jewish performer on the eve of the 1917 Revolution.

In den WarenkorbNo Binding. Zustand: Good. No Jacket. In Russian. 4 pages (single folded bifolium). 38 x 27 cm. In acid free Mylar sleeve. This issue of Newspaper of the People's Revolutionary Army) is a Siberian revolutionary military newspaper published in Irkutsk during the collapse of Kolchak's White regime. The entire issue reflects a mome…nt of rapid military turnover, administrative improvisation, and ideological consolidation as Soviet forces take control of Eastern Siberia. The front page opens with a brief bulletin "For the day", summarizing decisive events: Soviet troops seize Rostov and Nakhichevan, a Temporary Council of People's Administration of Siberia opens in Irkutsk, Kolchak's retreating army suffers massive losses from cold, illness, and wounds, and Bolshevik-organized uprisings spread in the Caucasus. This establishes the tone of inevitable White collapse and revolutionary advance. A lead article datelined Irkutsk, 13 January declares the end of war profiteering and speculation and celebrates popular liberation. However, it urges restraint, discipline, and unity, warning against premature triumphalism. The article stresses that democracy must now laboriously rebuild the country, destroy remnants of reaction, and prevent fratricidal civil war from re-emerging. The army is presented not as a class instrument, but as an army of the people charged with securing peace and democratic order. An editorial review discusses political strategy, emphasizing the necessity of centralized Soviet authority and warning against fragmented regionalism. It underlines that only a unified revolutionary power can end the war and stabilize Siberia. The paper explicitly distances itself from anarchic violence and insists that revolutionary legitimacy must be channeled through representative and disciplined institutions. A long column titled "At the fronts" provides operational updates from multiple theaters: Eastern, South-Western, Southern, and Siberian fronts. Reports list towns taken, enemy withdrawals, captured artillery, machine guns, armored trains, and prisoners. The tone is factual and logistical, reinforcing the sense of systematic, organized victory rather than chaotic upheaval. A major section, "On the routes of the defeated army", offers a grim narrative of Kolchak's retreat. It describes blocked railways, abandoned trains, starvation, freezing soldiers, corruption among officers, and the breakdown of medical and sanitary services. Sanitary trains fail, wounded soldiers are left without care, and looting spreads. The collapse is portrayed as moral as well as military, contrasting sharply with the discipline ascribed to Soviet forces. Page three documents the formation and first session of the Temporary Council of People's Administration of Siberia, listing its political composition: representatives of cooperatives, trade unions, professional organizations, and city councils. It presents the Council as a broad democratic coalition destined to hand power to a strengthened revolutionary center. A political speech argues that the Russian Revolution is both political and social, requiring national unity across democratic and socialist forces. Further articles address arrests of White officials, rumors surrounding Kolchak's fate and the gold reserve, and the role of foreign (notably Japanese and Czech) forces in Siberia. Another report describes executions carried out by Semenov's troops, reinforcing the narrative of White brutality. The final page focuses on local life: shortages of paper, reorganization of education, seizure of fuel supplies, railway administration, and appeals to local authorities to support revolutionary institutions. Notices to military units and civil administrations emphasize order, communication, and cooperation. Overall, this issue functions simultaneously as a military bulletin, political manifesto, and administrative directive. It captures a transitional moment in Siberia when revolutionary power is no longer merely advancing but beginning the. . . .

[P.M.] 45976" [Newspaper production number assigned to this announcement.] Historically important: Before the February Revolution (March 1917), Jews were legally restricted, including: quotas in education, residency limits (Pale of Settlement), restrictions on communal organization.1.The Provisional Government abolished antisemitic laws in spring 1917. For the first time in Imperial Russian history, the Jewish community of Petrograd could: operate openly; register legally; elect its own governing Council (Совет); participate in civic life without restrictions; 2.The Petrograd Jewish Community was one of the largest and most politically diverse Jewish urban communities in Russia. Its Council incorporated representatives of: Zionists; Bundists; Jewish liberals (Kadets); Religious traditionalists; Autonomists (Dubnow school). 3. Elections of 1917 were unique. These were the only freely held, city-wide Jewish communal elections in Petrograd between the fall of Tsarism and the rise of Bolshevik control. By 1918 such elections became impossible.This issue of Rech captures, in real time: a public Jewish communal announcement issued during the brief democratic window shortly before the October Revolution. The notice is a rare documentary evidence of Jewish civic life in the final months of the Provisional Government. The title of the announcement is not generic. It directly refers to the governing body ("Совет") of the legally recognized Jewish Community of Petrograd in 1917, making it a historically valuable piece. This issue was published during the turbulent weeks immediately after: Kornilov Affair (August), Reorganization of the Provisional Government, Renewed Bolshevik agitation. Many copies of this issue were destroyed during the October fighting or seized when Rech was shut down by the Bolsheviks in November. This notice is rare documentary evidence of Jewish civic life in the final months of the Provisional Government. Note: The Office hours: 5 to 8 o'clock." refer to 5-8 P.M. Offices rarely opened at 5 a.m.; Jewish communal offices in 1917 typically kept evening hours to accommodate working men.
