October's Children Little Octobrists
Original vintage Soviet propaganda poster - If they like to work, then they are October's children! Great illustration showing three children helping with the household chores, the first boy wearing a Soviet red star Little Octobrist badge featuring an image of a young Lenin and peeling a potato, the second boy looking out to the viewer and smiling as he dries the dishes and the girl on the right polishing shoes, the text below in stylised red letters. The slogan refers to the October Revolution; the Little Octobrists was for 7-9 year old children who would usually then join the Young Pioneers for children aged 10-15 years old (similar organisation to the Boy Scouts and Girl Guides). Horizontal. Fair condition, small tears and creases in top and bottom margins, large stains in bottom right corner.

FAQs
More information about our posters and service.
Are your posters originals?
All our antique and vintage posters, books, maps and prints listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity.
What is a lithograph?
Practically all of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves carving each colour of the image onto a piece of stone. The poster sheet is then imprinted consecutively with a stone slab for each colour, creating a stunning and rich image.
With the exception of silk printing, we believe that other printing techniques do not deliver the same impact of colour as lithography.
Where do you deliver to?
We ship posters worldwide rolled in shock-resistant and hard wearing tubes. Unless specified otherwise, delivery is free within the UK and standard international delivery is £25 for orders placed via our website.
