Comrade Ryazanov:
I have a great request:
Return the books.[1] ||||||| 1) Do you, by any chance, know where the underscored passages in Engelsâs letters come from?
2) Has this ever been published in full and where?
3) If it has, can we find and get it?
4) Could we buy the letters of Marx and Engels, or photographs of them, from Scheidemann & Co. (you know, this dirty lot will sell anything)?
5) Is there any hope of our collecting in Moscow everything published by Marx and Engels?
6) Is there a catalogue of everything already collected here?
7) Are we collecting the letters of Marx and Engels, (or copies of them) or is that impossible?
With communist greetings,
Lenin
