        I should get one of those sometime

        I got mine (indefinite borrowing) from a friend and it's printed on the cheapest paper, full of typos and weird typography, and worst of all... smells like burning plastic for some reason :(

          Hahaha mine is excatly the same, it's the mass printed version from 90's they have entire storages of it and are selling it on Aliexpress.

          Well it could be worse, in Poland revisionism got hand to hand with sino-soviet split so Mao's works in Polish were only printed in very small numbers up till 1960 and are now impossible to get. The only polish edition of Little Red Book was printed in Beijing in 1972.

            Omg lol, I thought mine was just particularly bad, I didn't realize it was just some mass-produced version

            Sorry to hear Poland got the Little Red Book so late and in so few numbers... a flimsy copy is much better than no copy

            Well, at least we have the internet now and you can get a digital copy of pretty much anything as long as a translation exists
