Above and below are matching lines in Uzbek in Arabic script and in Russian: the slogan 'Proletarians of all countries, unite!' and a greeting 'To the delegate of the 1st All-Uzbek Congress, January-February 1925'.

TURKLIT No. 159 EDITION 700. LITH. REVK. UZ. ``` The Arabic-script Uzbek lines were read by machine from the image and are not verified by a reader of 1920s Uzbek orthography; their meaning is confirmed by the parallel Russian lines and the library catalogue, and the exact spelling of the last word of the top Uzbek line is uncertain. The Russian slogan is set in a stylised hand and its second word is read as 'Пролетарии'. The small imprint abbreviations at the bottom ('ТУРКЛИТ', 'ЛИТ. РЕВК. УЗ.') are transcribed as printed and not expanded.
