A good example of this interesting Communist guide Intourist was the Soviet agency established in 1929 to promote the USSR's image overseas. Stalin's Russia wasn't a closed country by any means, although many western visitors arrived as part of delegations sent by trade unions and other sympathetic groups. This guide nearly always lacks the two maps of Moscow and Leningrad inserted loose as a booklet with printed wrappers at rear. The two other maps bound in the book are of the European USSR and the Asiatic USSR.
First edition. Small 8vo, (15 x 10 cm), 706pp, 2 (of 4) folding coloured maps, (lacks maps of Moscow and Leningrad usually inserted loose in a booklet at rear), adverts at rear, paper on preliminary pages slightly creased; publisher's original black cloth, slightly marked and worn; a good copy.
