Roma: Partito Comunista Italiano / Editoriali Fratelli Spada 1971. First Edition. Lithographed poster offset in three colors; 100cm x 70cm ca 40" x 28"; on heavy paper. Minor toning; light creases at margins; Near Fine - Grade A/A-. A bit of a puzzle: the poster appears to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of the formation of the Associazione Bandiera Rossa an Italian Trotskyist group; but the poster bears the imprint of the PCI the main-line Marxist-Leninist party in Italy -- an ideological implausibility even within the chaotic confines of Italian Marxism. Adding further to the confusion is a quotation from Antonio Gramsci founder of the PCI in upper right. In any case a terrific graphic attributed here to Luciano Prati whose name we encounter on a few late-70s Italian film posters but nowhere else. Duke University appears to be the only North American institution to hold a catalogued copy of this work. Partito Comunista Italiano / Editoriali Fratelli Spada unknown books
