Soviet propaganda posters – Socialism vs Capitalism
Posters that “showed” Soviet people the difference between socialism and capitalism.
Comment: These posters remain a valid commentary on capitalism and its rapacity, exploitation and illusory promises. If you are not part of the capitalist class, it is a bargain with the devil who promises wealth down the road but instead delivers economic destruction and caprice with no way out. It is a system propped up by the psychology of the lottery: there are most certainly winners and one is asked to believe that you will be one of them in exchange for your labor and (most importantly), time. What is not revealed is that the “reward” if at all forthcoming, is outrageously minuscule compared to the time and effort expended. In short, freedom to work in capitalist hell.
About 20 millions of American people don’t have enough money to buy more than 1 liter of milk per month and 6 kg of meat per year.
They have plenty of goods for rich people only, and we are going to give goods to all the people.
Who has the national income?
Exploiters have the majority of it in capitalistic countries.
Working people – in USSR.
n the countries of capitalism – the violation of working people rights
In the countries of socialism – the right to work
In the countries of capitalism – the path of the talent…
In the countries of socialism – the path to the talent!
May 1 celebrations
Have a look, all the Soviet country is singing and dancing…
Our red spring is the most beautiful one!

Soviet Propaganda posters – Patriotic Images
The propaganda of the USSR was working hard to inspire the people with pride in their country and confidence in the future.
Soviet Tourist Posters From the Stalin era Aimed at Foreiginers to Visit the USSR
There is a widespread belief that Stalin’s Soviet Union was a country almost completely closed to foreigners. However, advertising of “Intourist” (organization responsible for foreign tourism in the USSR) created in 1930ies, gives somewhat different look at the issue.
The country was in desperate need of foreign currency for industrialization, so all the ways to lure wealthy foreign tourists to the USSR were used. And it was not just about the major cities – Moscow and Leningrad.
You can see the invitations to visit almost all the interesting parts of the USSR, theater festivals, river cruises, the Russian hunting, great construction projects. These posters were made to create an image of pre-war Soviet Union as the “earthly paradise.”
