{"product_id":"1973-soviet-may-day-poster-konyukhov","title":"Original 1973 Soviet May Day Poster – Artist V. Konyukhov – Lenizdat, Leningrad","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is an original 1973 Soviet May Day poster, published in Leningrad by Lenizdat — the Leningrad State Publishing House, one of the most respected Soviet publishers of the era. Designed by V. G. Konyukhov to mark May 1st — the Day of International Workers' Solidarity — it is classic Socialist Realism at its most optimistic: a worker embraces the globe beneath the bold \"1 МАЯ\" banner, projecting a sense of international unity and confidence that defined the early 1970s Soviet aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this piece particularly collectible is its provenance. The original printing plate information is preserved in the bottom margin, documenting the full production chain: artist, art editor, printer, and an original print run of just 10,000 copies. The original cover price of 0.10 ruble is also recorded — a small detail that serious collectors look for as a mark of authenticity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e100% Guaranteed Original Vintage Poster — not a modern reprint or reproduction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArtist: V.
