The Soviet Political Poster, 1919 - 1971

Portfolio

A looseleaf portfolio of 32 posters, lithographically reprinted, from the Soviet Union created between the years 1919 and 1971. In effect, the portfolio serves as corresponding propaganda for the timeline of the USSR, up to two decades before its dissolution. It was the second such compilation of Soviet posters published by G. Pavlov in the 1970s, preceeded by a double-volume set published in 1973. Included in the portfolio is an introduction by G. Pavlov and the table of contents; it obtains the original cardstock-weight cover wraps, as well. Poster artists and the titles of the works are as follows:
