Note:
This image is likely one of the reproductions of Russian posters from “Russkii plaskat”, 1917 - 1922 published by N. Putin. The “Russkii plakat” was the first part of a series of books on the Russian poster in which Putin selected Lebedev to create the chromolithographs after the Rosta posters. The “tirage” was very limited to approximately 500 copies and thus are considered rare.
