Posters from the former Soviet Union 2
reflect the official ideology of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Though they were printed in massive quantities, most were destroyed in the early 90's (no-one has realized the value of those posters...). The destruction was a systematic operation, so there really are only very few posters remaining. That fact has a big influence on their current price in the market.

Enjoy this huge collection of posters. A click on any poster will lead You to a bigger size image.
Please, don't "harvest" all the big pictures from the directory. There is unprecedented amount of traffic on the server. If You want to have all the images on Your computer (and in even better resolution), You can get our Propaganda Posters CD.

All posters on this page are available (unless stated). "det" in the image name means that the picture shows only a detail from a poster - look where the whole poster is listed for translation and price. "ds" means that the poster was printed on both sides. Our comments are in italics, translations of the poster are in regular script. 

How big are the posters? There is a blue ruler by most posters and it measures exactly 1 ft or cca 30 cm!

/ Afghan nation builds a new life... Writing in the white area:The Soviet Union was always giving [us,] Afghanistan help in the moments that were the most important for our nation - in the times where our national independence and sovereignity strenghtened. Babrak Karmal. Babrak Karmal was an Afghan puppet of Moscow. Soviet Union used well practised trick - found somebody in the target country who did not mind to betray his nation in the exchange of Soviet protection. Such a person "called the Soviets to help his country", Russians then came and helped this puppet to become the prime minister, president or something similar. The new "government" was fully subordinated to the Soviet Union. This trick has two big benefits: officially, the invasion can be called "brotherly help", and further coercion is mediated thru happy, satisfied puppets. Soviet Union used this method more than once, another good example is the invasion to Czechoslovakia in 1968. I am sure most other big powers are familiar with this trick as well, although Russian KGB has mastered it to perfection. €540, €983 for the set of two

/ Afghanistan: ...and protects the progress brought by the April Revolution. Very unique poster, showing Afghanistan with "people happy to be liberated by the Soviet army and living new, socialistic life" Most people today agree that the Soviet union invaded Afghanistan forcefully and brought only disaster. Soviet troops were suffering from "Afghan syndrom" when they came back: after participating in so much violence, they could not cope with normal life.

351a/  Stalin. There were no posters with Stalin's face printed officially in USSR since Stalin's death. Yes, he was on the list!! One could only see a few posters being sold on people's markets, but that was illegal. This is probably the first poster of Stalin printed in the USSR since the 50's. But - this is an anti-Stalin poster. J.V.Stalin. In the bottom half, you can see his mug shot. It is written on it that he killed millions of people. It shows the bones of the killed. The top half shows clapping hands and J.V. Stalin shooting - he once shot his comrade right on a meeting...      €223; Available now! See if there is a discount available.
