In Soviet Union... ok, overdone to the 10th degree.

Posters are a lost art I think. I've not seen a compelling one since 1990 if not before, from anywhere.

Fascinating posters. The Soviet era artistic style is certainly instantly recognizable.

Same here. A lot of sweet memories... but looking back now its also frightening a bit.

I have a couple of Cuban friends who remember those posters as well when they were kids.

A bit disconcerting to see the Soviet moon even though it says "in the Name of Peace."
