Maksimov (book ticket; manuscript pressmark); small 20th-century ink stamp on inside back cover. FIRST EDITION IN RUSSIAN OF MARX'S GREAT POLEMIC. A COMPLETE SET, RARE IN UNIFORM CONTEMPORARY BINDING. The Russian is the first translation in any language. 'Giving his imprimatur, the censor, one Skuratov, had written "few people in Russia will read it, and still fewer will understand it". He was wrong: the edition of 3000 sold out quickly; and in 1880 Marx was writing to his friend F.A. Sorge that "our success is still greater in Russia where Kapital is read and appreciated more than anywhere"' (PMM). The printing of a second edition was forbidden in Russia, and in 1890 a New York publisher issued a nearly identical reprint of vol. 1 sometimes mistaken for this first edition. Printing and the Mind of Man 359. (3)
