Welcome to Antique Poster Shop
The poster is one of the most lively and, at the same time, the most complex areas in graphic design, in art. The Soviet poster is a truly unique phenomenon, and in different years the authors of famous posters were outstanding Soviet artists, leading people of their time.
The best artists of their time worked on propaganda posters, famous poets wrote slogans - thus, unique graphic schools were formed. Nowhere in the world did they teach the poster purposefully and systematically, as it was in the USSR.
Rare Soviet posters today have to be searched for in different countries of the world. It's a paradox, but what was created in only a few copies and is known only to collectors is sometimes easier to find than what was produced in thousands of copies. Of the millions of campaign posters that have adorned the streets, classrooms, classrooms and hospital corridors for many decades, only a few have survived.
Posters of the Soviet era are not only original works of graphic art, antiques and antique graphics, original retro gifts and interior items, but also truly historical documents
This is an excellent example for a propaganda museum or home collection.
This is a 1972 Mark Abramov and Victor Dobrovolsky Cold War Era Soviet propaganda poster touting the Soviet military achievement. A Soviet soldier, embracing a ballistic missile. The poster is intended to promote Soviet nationalism and confidence in face of growing anti-Soviet sentiment.

The Cold War
The Cold War was a geopolitical conflict between the United States and the Soviet Union, and their respective allies, the Western Bloc and the Eastern Bloc, which began following World War II (1939 - 1945). The Cold War is generally considered to have begun with the 1947 Truman Doctrine and ended with the 1991 dissolution of the Soviet Union. During the course of the conflict, both the United States and the Soviet Union developed powerful nuclear arsenals. While there was always a threat of nuclear war, the apocalyptic cost of such an exchange kept both sides from engaging in direct warfare. Instead, with no large-scale engagement, the Cold War was fought through various proxy wars, espionage, propaganda campaigns, embargos, and psychological warfare. Each superpower supported major regional conflicts centered around an ideological and geopolitical struggle for global influence.

Mark Aleksandrovich Abramov (1913 - 1994) was a Soviet and Ukrainian artist. Born in Kharkov, Ukraine, Abramov went to Moscow to study engineering and studied at the Moscow Civil Engineering Institute from 1931 until 1936. Using the pseudonym Moa, Abramov and his brother Oleg submitted cartoons and caricatures to satirical newspapers and magazines during the 1930s. This led to a career as a satirical artist and his caricatures appeared in Pravda and Izvestiya, along with other leading newspapers, regularly. His work was also published in Krokodil and Ogonyok, two popular magazines. Abramov also enjoyed a successful career as a poster artist, with fifteen released during World War II between October 1941 and April 1945. He continued designing posters after the war, and was awarded the title Honored Worker of Arts of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic in 1964..
