Postcard Battleship Potemkin, 1951.
The size is continental standard 6" x 4", postally unused and unmarked, published by the Soviet Artist Publishing House, circulation 50,000, quite small by Soviet standards. The artwork is an offset print of the eponymous 1948 linocut by V. Bibikov, showing the legendary Russian Navy battleship famous for the 1905 mutiny of its sailors against the officers triggered by poor conditions (maggots in meat), and immortalized by the Soviet film director Sergei Eisenstein in his 1925 film as a revolutionary symbol.
In excellent condition: tiny corner bumps and minimal storage wear to the verso.
