[Pan-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee] : GEDENK-BIKHL FAR DER KALVIRTNITSE - FARVALTERN MIT DER ZOYGHEYM

Kharkov: Melukhe-Farlag far di Natsyonale Minderhaytn fun U.S.R.R, 1932

1st edition. Original Printed Paper Wrappers, Small 8vo, 8 pages. 18 x 12.5 cm. In Yiddish. Title translates roughly as, “Reminder Booklet…for Managing the Care Center.” This rare Soviet Ukrainian Yiddish booklet, published under authority of the Pan-Ukrainian Central Executive Committee, instructs administrators and caregivers on how to organize and manage a kindergarten to care for children while mothers are at work. It details how to assign age-appropriate food, how to monitor play activities, how to bathe toddlers etc. As Soviet industrialization progressed and many women transitioned to full-time work to escape countryside poverty, such kindergartens were in high demand. The text is strictly secular: entirely in Yiddish and without a single word on religious studies or traditions. On the contrary, caretakers are instructed to raise the children “in a pro-communist manner.” Tragically, the year of publication of this work–1932–was in Ukraine also the first year of the Holodomor famine which killed more than 2.5 million people, meaning that the proposed menus proposed here were probably soon moot. Perhaps as a result of this timing, we were unable to locate a single copy of this work anywhere; it is possible that these were not distributed outside of Ukraine and within Ukraine they were made irrelevant by the emerging famine and were discarded. In any case, the work is exceedingly rare, possibly a unique surviving copy. Small stain to one corner of cover, otherwise Very Good Condition. (YID-43-2-E-'+)
