Item description from seller

Paris: Izdanie Soiuza Tsarskikh Oprichnikov, 1923. Octavo (23 × 15 cm). Original printed wrappers; 28, 8 pp. Stamps of the Mladoross Organization library in Paris. Spine covered with opaque tape; the fragile wrappers somewhat chipped and tearing along tape edge; text toned; still good or better. This issue reproduces previously unpublished material that asserts that Tsar Nicholas II survived and was saved along with his entire family. The supposed witness, and the author of these recollections, is a certain Captain Poliakov, who asserts that he met and conversed with the Tsar after learning about his fate in a letter in 1922 and embarking on a long and difficult search for the ruler. Bound with a previously unpublished 8 pp. essay printed in Belgrade, entitled "The Russian truth about the autocratic Tsar." Laid in is a typewritten description, most likely by Aleksei P. Struve, the Paris bibliographer and book dealer, who describes the journal and notes that no further issues were published. Extremely uncommon, with no copies located at past Russian or Western auctions. KVK, OCLC only show one other copy (the second issue), at Nanterre. We can trace only one complete set worldwide, at the Czech National Library.…
