With photographic illustrations. First edition. Printed in 1300 copies. In publisher's, constructivist cover. Printed in orange and black. 47, (1) p. "KreisÄ fronte" was the first substantial leftist Latvian-language journal with international aspirations. Its concept and format followed Vladimir Mayakovsky's magazine the "LEF" and the design of "Novy Lef". Only 17 issues were published between 1928 and 1930 (the last one was double), when it was banned by the authorities, and Laicens launched his new magazine the "TribÄ«ne". The content of "KreisÄ fronte" was more cultural than political, contained avant-garde literary elements as well as photographic artwork. The editor, Linards (Petrovich) Laicens (1883-1938) was a Latvian Expressionist writer and poet, active in politics as a member of Communist party. He was the editor or the leftist Avant-garde journals "KreisÄ Fronte" and "TribÄ«ne". [Fraser: pp. 125-126.] . Spine worn, chipped at edges. Stains on last leaves. Overall in good condition. In publisher's, constructivist cover. Printed in orange and black. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 898
