Mao Zhu Xi Yu Lu (Chinese) (i.e. Quotations of Chairman Mao). - [THE ""LITTLE RED BOOK"" - THE ""CHINESE BIBLE""]
Sichuan Provincial Government edition. Likely Chongqing: May 1964 Pages measuring 137 x 102 mm. Original red vinyl with blindstamped lettering and star to front cover. The cover is made to fit around original blank paper-boards. Remains of light blue paint to spine and some soiling and staining to the inner flaps. Half-title printed in red, title-page in red and green with double-line imprint, tissue guard and portrait of Chairman Mao, Lin Biao's uncorrected endorsement leaf in facsimile, + 2, 2, 250 pp. Marginal notes on table of contents and strikethrough passage on pp. 192/3. With rare variant form (?) of the first character in the Chinese word for ""masses"" (??) – for example in chapter 1, p. 1, l. 11 (fourth character from the end).
First edition, slightly later variant issue, printd by the Sichuan provincial government. With the rare endorsement-leaf, which is usually lacking. The present copy has the uncorrected endorsement leaf but text pages 82/3 correctly printed. Bespoke derivatives of the first edition appeared soon after its release in 1964, this being one of the rare provinicial government ones. This edition is distinguishable from later editions by its slightly larger page size, by only containing 30 chapters, and by ending with page 250. This edition has a green double-line imprint on the title-page (schiller 4), which localizes it to Sichuan, and includes a rare variant form of the word ""masses"". There is no other publishing data, as the simultaneous production of the book at different locations in China made local distribution easier. The idea of publishing this little book of quotations, which are taken from the first official edition of Mao's writings (his selected works vols. 1-4, printed 1951-60), came to Lin Biao in late 1963 or early 1964, by which time the four volumes of Mao's works had become the chief reading and source of knowledge within China. The little (red) book was meant as inspirational reading for the public, and for several years a campaign was promoted urging (or perhaps commanding) everyone to study the thoughts of Chairman Mao in this form. The short quotation form made the thoughts more easily accessible, and even uneducated people (like the soldiers) were able to become acquainted with the thoughts and philosophy of their leader.Lin Biao wrote an endorsement, choosing three sentences from the diary of Lei Feng, which he wrote in calligraphic script. This endorsement leaf is lacking in most copies due to political reasons: By heavily promoting the LRB, Lin Biao had greatly risen in importance within the Mao-hierarchy, and he was actually designated to become Mao's successor, -however, rumours occurred that Lin Biao was planning to assassinate Mao and take over power immediately, and thus he was killed. Due to the close relationship between Lin Biao and Mao, the betrayal was considered the more disgraceful, in fact so disgraceful that it was decided that he had to be erased from modern history. Thus it was decided and commanded that the endorsement leaf was to be removed from all copies of the LRB, and getting caught with not having torn this leaf out might very well have meant the death penalty. ""The LRB continued to be printed in huge quantities for mass distribution up until the time of Mao's death on September 9th, 1976. This brought about an official end to the Cultural Revolution (which had used the LRB as a frequent symbol). By the late 1970s a change in government discouraged its further circulation and millions upon millions of copies were collected and destroyed as obsolete paper even while the cult of Maoism continued. It was during the centenary of Mao Tse-tung's birth (1993) that copies were once again printed, this time as facsimiles in English, French and German being exact replicas dated 1966 and with ""First Edition"" printed behind each title-page. They can be easily distinguished by their bright shiny red laminated covers and the presence of colored photograph portraits near the front. As they can still be found all over China, most likely they have been printed again even more recently. No one denies Mao is the Father of his country, truly the last Emperor, a symbol of power and reverence who has been exonerated for the mistakes of his reign and consequently recognized for his achievements as hope for the future. His ideology forms a brilliant concept that is still readable and admired today for its political theories and strategies, and no doubt he would be very proud to know the effect he has had on his own country and the world will never forget him.""
