Soviet School Grammar Maths Poster Nobility Power Communism
Original rare early Soviet education poster issued as an amendment to teach grammar and mathematics at schools based on exploitation - у бар была сила / The Landowners Had Power ... Our Pasture Is Our Strength - featuring a list of similar words and describing how the nobility used to have all the power and land, which they lost to the workers and peasants, featuring the stylised text above and below a colourful image depicting a countryside scene with a horse drawn carriage in front of a manor house and a wealthy family walking towards the doorman in a suit, the well dressed children in sailor style outfits holding their toys and a book as they approach the entrance steps, a crowd of farmers and poor people in ragged clothing gathered nearby and farmers leading horse carts full of hay on the paths and working on the fields leading to the horizon. Very good condition, restored fold and losses in margins, backed on linen.

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.
