That purported dedication by Marx struck a bell when I first read it. Still does. I've hunted around again, still can't find if it's apocryphal or factual. If anyone finds a more concrete reference, any link would be appreciated. Best I found was this: Manuscript of Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto https://socialhistoryportal.org/museum/6671 .. The only remaining manuscript page of The Communist Manifesto, written by Karl Marx in 1847. The handwriting is almost illegible. This text ends with the famous phrases 'The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Working men of all countries, unite!' manuscript Germany 1847 Inv.
