The first edition, in the original wallpaper covers. This important anti-artistic collaboration marks an important stage in the Russian avant-garde movement; it includes a long Hylaean manifesto calling for a new style of personal freedom and verbal richness, and for a new, 'trans-rational' language called 'zaum'. One of 800 copies. MoMA, The Russian Avant-Garde Book, 53.

Quarto (195 x 172mm). Printed on pale green paper; 15 illustrations, including 5 by Guro and 2 by Goncharova (margins lightly yellowed). Original flowered wallpaper covers, printed paper label on the upper cover (spine neatly repaired; light wear at the extremities).
