Articles giving advice and technical guidance on the best use of agricultural machinery are also pure propaganda of collectivization because an average individual farmer could not afford such machinery.

In very good condition. The binding staples are missing but all the pages are in place, and stapling them together is a 1-minute job, if desired. The staple holes are small and neat, without significant rips. The cover is a little frayed along the fold line, not too intrusive to the eye. The internal pages are amazingly well-preserved, showing just barely noticeable storage wear.

Please note that the pen in our photo is for size reference.
