Description: Good rare stamp. Yakov Mikhailovich Sverdlov (3 June [O.S. 22 May] 1885 – 16 March 1919) was a Bolshevik party administrator and chairman of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee. Sverdlov was born in Nizhny Novgorod as Yakov Mikhailovich Sverdlov to Jewish parents Mikhail Izrailevich Sverdlov and Elizaveta Solomonova. He first met Lenin in April 1917 and was subsequently trusted as the chairman of the Central Committee Secretariat. Sverdlov was elected chairman of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee in November, becoming thereby de jure head of state of the Russian SFSR until his death. He played an important role in the controversial decision to end the Russian Constituent Assembly and the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. Sverdlov had a prodigious memory and was able to retain the names and details of fellow revolutionaries while in exile. His organizational capability was well-regarded and during his chairmanship thousands of local party committees were initiated. Sverdlov is sometimes regarded as the first head of state of the Soviet Union, although the Soviet Union wasn't established until 1922, three years after his death.
