Catching up with the excellent Blog. Some attachments for you. I Particularly like the more ornate Russian card, which uses traditional folk art designs. TB2 is from a selection box.
I'm always amazed how the Russians merged their Space Programme with Christmas on cards. Can't remember much like this in the UK. Did it happen elsewhere in the world?

ReplyDeleteDoubly odd, cos I always thought of Russia at that period as atheist, at least officially.
ReplyDeleteAlso interesting that Santa is dressed predominantly in blue in the top image.
Thanks for showing, Andy.
