Hangö, Finand: Hango?-bladets tryckeri, 1930. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. Very Good. An extremely rare pamphlet published in Finland by the Swedish-speaking supporters of Finland's fascist/pro-Germany political organisation, The Lapua Movement. The Swedish title translates into English as, "The Lapua movement, its origin and development, its aims and possibilities: Finland's Swedish population and the Lapua movement". Stapled wrappers, pp. 23. The Lapua Movement was a brutal anti-communist organisation which sought to elevate the "White" principles of the earlier civil war, including, Anti-communism. Lutheranism, and Finnish nationalism. Initially it attracted sympathetic support from prominent members of the establishment but its increasingly violent activities - not least the kidnapping and murder of Social Democrat politician Onni Happonen - could not sustain this and the movement was ultimately outlawed after a failed coup-d'etat attempt in 1932. Extremely rare - I can find only a small handful of copies held by university libraries across Northern Europe - and this example is in excellent, clean condition. Sunned at the spine. minor marks to the wrappers, slight creases but otherwise VG condition indeed.
