Original vintage Soviet space propaganda poster featuring a red spacecraft labelled Soyuz-3 being launched under a black starry space sky with its exhaust cloud in orange shaped as a map of the Soviet Union and the rocket's support structure as the hammer and sickle state emblem of the USSR, a quote from the poem Red Envy by the "poet of the revolution" Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893-1930) in black below - Our life is to burst into the future / Наша жизнь в грядущее рваться. Launched in October 1968 during the Space Race period, the Союз 3 solo test flight mission was commanded by the air force pilot and cosmonaut Georgy Beregovoy (Georgy Timofeyevich Beregovoy; 1921-1995). Good condition, creasing, tears.

FAQs

More information about our posters and service.

Are your posters originals?

All antique and vintage posters listed on our website are guaranteed originals as detailed in their photographs and descriptions, and include a certificate of authenticity. 

What is a lithograph?

Most of the posters found on our website are lithographs. This is a method of printing that involves drawing a reverse image of each colour 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, I 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 £35 for orders placed via our website.
