I see that it is of very poor print quality. Is there new information in the book, or is there coverage of rare titles, state prizes etc.?

About the printing quality; it is neither better not worst than most of the Russian made catalogs or books. This book is not printed on a glossy paper, and all the illustrations are drawings... In fact, I don't find it so bad... Maybe my scans don't give him credit...
About the content : it is in Russian; I have not yet gone through all the contents and chapters. But, as far as I have understood and seen, it seems to cover Republican orders in a quite extensive manner. It is lighter about the State prizes. Ch. |
