Hej rup: týdeník mladých [Heave-ho: a weekly paper of the young]. Alternate subtitle: časopis mladých [a journal of the young]. Vols. I-III, nos. 2, 3, 5, 7, 16-30, 33-64, 66 in 42 issues (some double) by Kolář, Jiří, editor

Prague: A. Rezek, Fr. Šmída, A. Beranová, (kladenská organizace Svazu mladých v ČSR), 1936-1938. Printed by J. Šnajdr in Kladno. Quartos (31.5 × 23.5 cm). Original pictorial and photo-illustrated self-wrappers; 8-16 pp. per issue. llustrated from photographs and drawings. Very good; only faint horizontal creases; a few issues uncut and unopened. A substantial run (approximately 80% published) of the Czech leftist and later overtly communist periodical intended for "all progressive, anti-fascist young people who yearn for peace and despise war," which emerged from the atmosphere surrounding the avant-garde theater Osvobozené divadlo (Liberated Theater) and was issued by the Kladno branch of the Youth Alliance of the Czechoslovak Republic. Despite its occasional focus on the Theater, the bulk of the journal presents engaged coverage of the Spanish Civil War, the rising Fascist movement in Germany and the Sudetenland, and pro-Soviet and pro-Stalin articles, as well as May Day activities and parades worldwide and the role of youth in them. The contributions on the Spanish Civil War, which discuss ways of aiding the Republican cause and cover the Czech involvement on the ground, are among the most interesting and richly illustrated, with reproductions of Spanish posters and photographs of the war effort. Further topics are youth sporting events, the Tramping movement, the Báťa worker housing in Zlín, and Czech and Soviet film culture. The journal features cartoons of Hitler, Charlie Chaplin, the Marx Brothers, Picasso, an interview with Tristan Tzara, and a photo and note about the young Lenin. It also contains interesting coverage of Sudeten Germans, including a critical review of pro-war German literature in no. 7 and an article about Czech-German conflict over the Sudetenland in nos. 20-21. Also printed are original poems and prose, including translations of works by Il'ia Erenburg, Mikhail Zoshchenko, Rupert Brooke, Jack London, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Maxim Gorky, Walter Mehring, and others. The last pages of each issue feature an overview of youth activism throughout the Czechoslovak Republic. In 1938, the journal was edited by Jiří Kolář. A highly interesting and surely understudied source on interwar leftist youth movements in Czechoslovakia, as well as the Czech involvement in the Spanish Civil War. Rare; even individual issues are scarce and are currently not traced in commerce. As of July 2020, KVK and OCLC show only a single holding outside the Czech Republic, a group of twenty-five issues at Princeton's Cotsen Library.
