“Long Live Moscow” - poster by Viktor Ivanov (1947)
The poster reads, top to bottom, “Ancient Moscow”, “Pre-revolution Moscow”, “Soviet Moscow.”
This blog is about old postcards, book illustration and all kinds of paper whimsy from the Soviet Union. I'm a long time collector, and this blog is 7 years old. I have an etsy shop for cards, books, pins and vintage finds from Russia.
