KAMENSKY, Vasily Vasilevich (1884-1961). Lunost Mayakovskogo [Mayakovsky's Youth].
Tiflis: Zakkniga, 1931. 84 pp. 8vo (180 x 130 mm). Constructivist designs by Rodchenko. Original paper on lithographic cardboard covers in red, gray and black. Condition: joints repaired with split at tail of rear board with slight loss; extremities rubbed, small stamps and ink marks on rear pastedown and endpaper, unobtrusive scattered marginalia in red and black pencil. Includes a drawing of Kamensky by Mayakovsky and five printed announcements of Futurist activities, two of which are integrated with the text.
