RARE. Samizdat 1990.USSR. First publication execution of Nicholas II. Romanov

Description: 1. This is samizdat "Russkoe Delo" released underground in a small circulation in the USSR, in Novosibirsk in 1990. One of the first publications about the execution of Nicholas II. Inner pages are not connected to the book cover. This is due to the fact that this book was produced by hand, at home. Samizdat (Russian: самизда́т, lit. "self-publishing") was a form of dissident activity across the Eastern Bloc in which individuals reproduced censored and underground makeshift publications, often by hand, and passed the documents from reader to reader. The practice of manual reproduction was widespread, due to the fact that most typewriters and printing devices were inventorized and required permission to access. This grassroots practice to evade official Soviet censorship was fraught with danger, as harsh punishments were meted out to people caught possessing or copying censored materials. Nicholas II or Nikolai II Alexandrovich Romanov (18 May [O.S. 6 May] 1868 – 17 July 1918), known in the Russian Orthodox Church as Saint Nicholas the Passion-Bearer,[e] was the last Emperor of All Russia, ruling from 1 November 1894 until being forced to abdicate on 15 March 1917. 2.
