Found in An Anthology of Modern Yugoslav Poetry (Lavrin, ed. 1962). It's from a Croatian bookstore, and I'm old enough that I can practically hear the crinkle of the carbon sheet

Two pages of a book. On the left is a poem by Cene Vipotnik in English translation. On the right, not a page of the book but a handwritten receipt from a 1970s type carbon-duplicate pad with a business address in Zagreb. It looks exactly like the receipts we used to get at the local hardware store, apart from being in Croatian, so the per-item price column is labeled "Jedin. cijena" and so forth

I had a pair of skis of "mladost" brand back in a day: Если хочешь сделать гадость, подари мне лыжи "Младость". No clue why I still remember this... Random post gets a random comment!

That’s Russian, not Croatian or Serbian.
