Was that published by one of those old Soviet publishers? I forget their name(s) but they helped print Marxist and Leninist and history in English and other languages to spread around to non-Russians. Incredibly cool and based. I have a couple of the books printed by one of them. Capital Vol I-III and some other writings by Marx and Engles. It feels weird reading them, but they've held up pretty well over the years. All hardcover, fairly decent quality from like the 1970s I think.
I have this old "beater" copy of Capital printed way fucking back in 1930 something. It's old as hell, pages falling out, obviously been read and reread by many people. Someone even had notes they wrote on the pages. I got it for basically free. Like probably most people now, I do most of my reading on ereaders, tablet, phone, audiobook, but there is definitely something classic and timeless about holding a book from your grandparents or great grandparents time and being able to engage with the same ideas.
