Single sheet 8 ¼" x 10 ½", front only. The flyer was issued at a time in the Russian Civil War optimistic for the White Army: Denikin's Army of the South of Russia was advancing toward Moscow, Admiral Kolchak was retreating eastward in Siberia, drawing a large Red Army force to follow his troops; the Polish army had captured Minsk, acting in cooperation with Denikin's units. The Russian peasantry was strongly anti-bolshevik, reacting to the Red Terror of the 1918 Military Communism policy of Lenin and Trotsky. A large number of partisan units, summarily called "The Green Army" in the flyer, added their forces to the White Movement - not because they joined it in any fashion but by being a force opposing the bolsheviks. The flyer is signed "Old partisans", a term used at the time to describe not only organized military partisan units but any individuals who volunteered to fight against the Red hordes.

In very good to excellent condition. The paper is slightly wrinkled, and shows mild wear to the edges and corners. However, all the wear is contained to the margins. The text is vibrantly crisp, clear and perfectly legible.
