Description
Original 1929 Prague edition of 80 let T. G. Masaryka by Dr. Jaromír Doležal, a Czech-language commemorative work devoted to Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk, the founding president of Czechoslovakia. This is a desirable interwar historical title that belongs to the Knihy pro každého series and was issued during Masaryk’s own lifetime, giving it strong period relevance for collectors of Czech history, political biography, and First Czechoslovak Republic material.
* Published in Prague in 1929 by Státní nakladatelství
* Written to mark the era of Masaryk’s 80th birthday jubilee
* A true period Masaryk item, not a later retrospective reprint
* Part of the educational series Knihy pro každého, Year VIII, svazek 1 (31.)
* Attractive original yellow cloth binding
* A scarce and historically appealing book for collectors of Czech, Czechoslovak, and Central European history
What makes this book especially collectible is its direct connection to Masaryk’s lifetime and public legacy. As the first president and one of the defining figures of modern Czechoslovakia, Masaryk remains a cornerstone figure in Czech history. Books issued in his honor during the interwar period carry lasting historical interest, especially when they survive in original publisher’s binding like this example.
