Life During The Cold War

Soviet space propaganda posters, 1958-1963


“I am happy - this is my work joining the work of my republic”


“Soviet man – be proud, you opened the road to stars from Earth!”


“We will open the distant worlds!”


“Glory to the Fatherland of Heroes!”


“We were born to make the fairy tale come true!”


“Socialism is our launching pad”


“Conquer space!”


“Fatherland! You lighted the star of progress and peace. Glory to the science, glory to the labor! Glory to the Soviet regime!”


“Through the worlds and ages.”


“In the name of peace and progress!”

They knew how to make patriotism look cool.

I have to hand it to the USSR. They weren’t good at much, but their propaganda was powerful.

Propaganda Poster Art was something they learned well from the NAZIs. They do make you want to look at them and they do make you proud to be of Mother Russia.
