In very good condition. The paper is slightly wrinkled, the edges show mild fraying but the entire perimeter of the poster is reinforced with tape on the verso. Old fold lines are visible if you look for them but not very intrusive to the eye, and not detractive on the large poster.
The poster was published as a small part of the national frenzy to sing praise to the Great Helmsman on his 70th birthday. It is difficult to convey the level of sycophancy of these lyrics. Suffice it to say that, including the title, the name "Stalin" repeats ten times in just three short stanzas and a refrain.
Please note that the 1-ft. ruler in our photo is for size reference.
