This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: Needs copy & readability edits, transliterated version of the Russian name of at least the publisher, some more history of its establishment & connection to communism. Double-check English version of name & put it in initial caps. (June 2016)
