Vintage ads. Leningrad: photoelectrical light meter (poster from 1956).
The top photo on the poster is captioned “No meter”, bottom is “With meter.”
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.
