1985 Kalendar 1985: Basni I.A. Krylov. Artist: A. Kandelaki. Tibilisi, Georgia, USSR. Ordena Trudovogo Kroasnogo Znamoni Tipografiia Izdatel'stvo: Typographic Press of the Order of the Red Banner of Labor of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Georgia. $10 from Valentina Kudinova, Kharkiv, Ukraine, Nov., '12.
For an ephemeral item, this is a beauty! It is actually a rather spare stapled pamphlet 11"x 8¼" with only one page to add to its twelve foldout spreads. The upper page of each foldout is a delightful multi-colored illustration of a Krylov fable. Virtually every one is identifiable, and many of them are prefigured on the cover: FC; "Quartet"; LM; and "The Swan, the Pike, and the Lobster." The others include "The Elephant and the Pug"; WC; "The Pig and the Crow"; FG; "The Cook and the Cat"; and GA. Two that I cannot recognize picture an older and a younger mouse for February and two dogs for April. The grasshopper in GA has a purse, fashionable hat and necklace, a parasol, and long eyelashes. - Source
