Vintage Soviet Propaganda Space Posters

Tomorrow, on April 12, 2011 will be exactly 50 years since the first man had made a journey to the outer space. Soviet pilot and cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was the first human in space (he spent there 1 hour and 48 minutes), and today we want to pay our tribute to this legendary person and celebrate the anniversary in our own unique way – by featuring a set of vintage soviet propaganda space posters. Most of these artworks were created in 1960’s, but our collection contains some reprints of the original posters. Nevertheless, we believe that you’ll enjoy these inspiring and fascinating vintage design goodies.
