Mess Mend was the first Soviet crime novel written by a woman, first published as a booklet series in 1924 under the irritating male pseudonym Jim Dollar. The Russian avant-gardist Alexander Rodchenko designed the cover pages of the 10 issues. They were reproduced from the only accessible complete collection of the original Soviet edition in the British Library and mounted as colored plates in the book.

Very good condition.
