About the Item

Rare original vintage World War Two poster with a short poem written by the Soviet writer, translator and poet Samuil Marshak (1887-1964): The brotherly nations have appointed a date over the enemy's city At every handshake fascist Germany cracks / Назначили народы-братья над вражьим городом свидание. При каждом их рукопожатьи трещит фашистская германия - below an image of two smiling pilots in British and Soviet war planes shaking hands as they drop bombs on Berlin / Берлин against a black background, the bombs marked with Union Jack flags and red USSR stars over a skyline map of the German city, the poem on a blue banner background. Kukryniksy was the collective name formed from the combined names of three caricaturists - Mikhail Kupriyanov (1903-1991), Porfiri Krylov (1902-1990) and Nikolai Sokolov (1903-2000). Good condition, restored tears, minor staining, backed on linen.
