A complete set of issues of this special edition of the newspaper has been preserved in the archive of Smolensk local historian Leonid Vasilievich Kotov. The article recounts the history of the origin of the newspaper «Malyutka» those who created it, and how the newspaper was delivered to the occupied territory of the Smolensk region. It also examines its structure and content.
