Vintage poster "Commanders, be vigilant, strictly observe the rules of covert command of the troops" - 1950s

39.90 лв.
  • Addresses in the form of slogans and posters in the period after the first years after 1944 was extremely characteristic of the socialist government. The purpose of these posters was to "decorate" the offices of the servicemen so that anyone who came in could read the inscription without being given an explicit order for what was written on the poster. So the relatively small circulation of these posters is not surprising and makes them particularly valuable to date.

    On this campaign poster we see this type of information. Beneath the inscription proudly stand the images of a sickle and hammer in a pentacle and a laurel branch in a ribbon. The poster has technical notes that indicate its size and instructions for printing. It was printed in the State Enterprise (State Printing House) Chromolithography "Balkan" Sofia by the Main Political Directorate of the People's Army in a circulation of 1000 copies. The style of the image is typical of the late 50s of last century, but the year is not specified.
