Recreation mastered directly from a very rare original Russian vintage poster. Great constructionist style poster. Stalin stares at progress. The Russian writing on this poster: The World Proclaims Soviet Air Feats. The poster shows a plane able to travel non stop from Moscow over the north pole to California. By 1938 Russia had claimed some 68 records for distance, altitude, and various "firsts." One of the more spectacular ones was a 6300-mile polar flight from Moscow to San Jacinto, California, in 1937. Before each flight, Stalin met the pilots, discussed their plans, and publicly worried about their safety. Stalin seized on the work of the famous Russian designer Tupolev, who was already developing a long-distance airplane who most likely designed this plane. It is an important poster because the U.S.A. Did not have an aircraft that would be able to fly this distance!
Mastered directly from a 1 to 1 file of an original stone lithograph this recreation provides you with all the fine details that you will see in the clean antique original. Printed on acid free 230-250 gm paper with 100+ year archival ink. Optional additional sizes available as well as print on fine American art canvas. Man made flaws (if any) are removed at the time of printing. The watermark does not appear on your print. Sizes do vary because of style and age.
