Soviet Soviet Poster Just Arrived

[Guest Rick Research]

The colors seem awful... fresh.

What do you think?

[Claudius]

Let's see it under high magnification.

[Rogi]

The faces don't look that Soviet to me :S but I've seen some odd prints here and there

[Guest Rick Research]

Odd yes. Very very odd.

[JapanX]

Very veraciter!

[JapanX]

I believe the right version will be

Давайте заработаем как можно больше медалей, чтобы американские коллекционеры cмогли их коллекционировать.

Fabricator ...

Has Uncle Mao made this one? I am curious

The first 3 soldiers look Chinese to me

Maybe Uncle Rick?

[RedMaestro]

Nice! It's sorta in the same spirit as this German recruiting poster.

No I have no ability to play with Cyrillic. Just a little fun for our friends--and shows how "good" something "looks" if you can't actually read it. That's NOT a quote from the Vozhd another Forumite sent me today in the mail.

Actually, I don't think I've seen an open joke item like this (surprisingly) in Russian "fakery" before--though God knows there are enough bad bad really b-a-d German language howlers to always be worth a laugh in those sections.

I am suprised that no one read this...

[JapanX]

Do you mean translation Paul?

I guess it intended to be "Let's win more medals so American collectors could collect them"

But instead it sounds like "Allow us benefit more medals in such way American collectors can collect them"
