First edition; 26 1/2 x 18 1/2; offset print; a few faint creases from being rolled; small bump to lower right corner and a very minor nick to top edge; very good or better condition.Published at the very end of Communism, the poster shows a boy and a girl standing next to each other, with the girl's kerchief made of the Soviet Flag and the boy's hat made of the American Flag.
