The size is continental standard 4" x 6", postally unused and unmarked. Published by the Soviet Artist Publishing House, the publisher's logo is printed in the upper left-hand corner on the verso. Circulation 2,000,000 copies. The artist's name, N. Dolgorukov, is printed in the lower left-hand corner on the verso. His hand signature is seen in the lower right-hand corner of the artwork. The artwork is an offset print of an uncommonly militant poster, probably a reflection on the Cuban missile crisis of 1962. It looks that the revolutionary battleship Avrora is shooting its gun while Lenin is shooting missiles from his eyes. The belligerent tone of the poster is enhanced by the quote from Mayakovsky reading "We live by the order of the October will. The Avrora's fire is in our eyes."
In excellent condition, no wear visible to the naked eye.
This is an uncommonly militant belligerent poster. Usually, the Soviet regime masked its intentions of global conquest with peace-loving lip service.
