About This Item
1936. SOVIET TRADE CATALOGUE. Kolbasy i myasokopchenosti. [Sausages and smoked meats]. Soviet Union. Glavnoe upravlenie miasnoi promyshlennosti. 3 volumes. 1: Livernyye i krovyanyye kolbasy. [Liverwurst and Blood Sausages.] 32 pp. 1936. 2: Kopchenyye kolbasy. [Smoked sausages.] 68 pp. 1937. 3. Zil'tsy i studni. [Brawns and Aspics.] 32 pp. 1937. Illustrated throughout. Oblong 8vo, 146 x 214 mm., publisher's blind-stamped wrappers. Moscow; Leningrad: Pishchepromizdat, 1936 & 1937. These three surreal homages to the sausage are a modest forerunner to the massive work produced in 1938 by the same publisher. While far smaller, the plates, each with an individual sausage, still have a somewhat surreal quality. While they do not have the avant-garde sensibility of Telingater's ball bearing catalogue or Piet Zwart's wire catalogue, these odes to the sausage can certainly lay claim to a place in surrealist literature. These are rare books and are not listed on OCLC.
