First Edition
First Edition. 78 pages, measuring 15.6 x 11 cm. This is the second and final work by the poet Andrei Blium, who wrote under the pseudonym Andrei Allin. This collection is exceptionally rare and provides insights into the activities of the Tsaregrad Poets' Guild, an obscure literary circle founded by B. Poplavsky and V. Dukelsky. The book's design is relatively luxurious, almost bibliophilic, which is highly unusual for Russian émigré publications from Constantinople. It features a pink cover, red-tinted edges, and high-quality paper, complete with the publisher's unique mark. This volume not only showcases Allin's poetic contributions but also serves as a valuable document of the Guild's literary endeavors.
