I recently recieved a small red book from an old teacher of mine, who couldn't give me any idea of where it came from or tell me much of anything about it. It appears to be some sort of communist russia paraphenilia, with vladamir lenin on the front cover, and the CCCP seal on the inside. There is also this phrase at several locations within it:
ΠPOΛETAPИИ BCEX CTPAH, COEДИHЯЙTECЬ
I've been able to gather only that much, and I only have pictures of the small book. Here's the cover:
If anybody is interested in translating the whole thing, let me know! However, the rules are nothing too long and it is several pages so I won't ask for anything but the cover and the phrase. Thanks!
EDIT: this forum seems to be restricting the image size, I'm adding a link instead:
http://s466.photobucket.com/albums/rr27/bangbangbangdead/?action=view¤t=Book0.jpg&newest=1A "Little Red Book" is a membership card ("комсомольский билет") of a member of "All-Union Leninist Young Communist League" (or "Komsomol" for short) in the Soviet Union. Every member had to have one.
(Actually, the picture only shows its cover).
The phrase ΠPOΛETAPИИ BCEX CTPAH, COEДИHЯЙTECЬ means "Workers of the world, unite!"
If you need more information about this League (Komsomol), see:
