“To have more one must produce more. To produce more one must have more knowledge.” Soviet poster with education propaganda (1920s)
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.
