Soviet Propaganda Posters (Graphic Arts)
GA Graphics 2010.01186
In 2000, Oliver Langenberg, Class of 1935, donated nine Soviet propaganda posters from the 1930s to our collection. These huge, very few posters document the national effort to encourage people to adopt the collective mind of the communist regime in all aspects of industrial property, land reform, social and political. The paper is very fragile, but the state remains very good. Here are some examples. The description is listed on the labels on the back of each poster.
