Are you referring to the _Selected Works of Chairman Mao_
(_Mao2 Ze2dong1 xuan3 ji2_)? It requires two characters that
are not in Unicode: _gong1_ with a jog in its vertical stroke,
and _ren2_ with three _pier3_ crossing the _na4_. (See Volume III.)

The traditional characters continue to be used in mainland China
for a variety of purposes.
