Stanislaw Lancucki (1882-1937) - socialist (PPSD) and communist (KPRP/KPP) activist and politician, as a member of the second term (1922-26) deprived of immunity and convicted of anti-state activity, served his sentence until 08.1928, in 1929 fled to the Soviet "paradise", where he received decorations and pensions for revolutionary activities, and finally died during the great purge in 1937.
At a plenum of the CPRP held in the pre-election period(parliamentary elections in August 1922, to which the outlawed CPRP was going as the Union of the Proletariat of Towns and Villages), in May 1922, a recommendation was made to publish election pamphlets/prints, among them several relating to the PPS's largest rival grouping, including one by MP Łańcucki, as well as one published by Szukowska(another item from our auction)
