Postcard "A fascist in a warm apartment", 1942

The original postcard of the military field post, issued in Moscow in 1942. Goskinoizdat Publishing House, Moscow Bolshevik publishing house printing house. The Great Patriotic War left a deep imprint on the printed products of that time: instead of the usual types of cities, front-line satire began to be placed on letterheads. On the front side of the card is printed a propaganda cartoon with the ironic caption "A fascist in a warm apartment", designed to raise morale both on the front line and in the rear. The graphic base of the form retains the classic pre-revolutionary structure of an "open letter" with a clear division into zones "To where", "To Whom" and "Sender's address", but is complemented by current Soviet symbols and postage stamps. In the upper right corner there is an impression of a stamp with a face value of 10 kopecks, however, for military personnel of the active army, the shipment was free. The original postmarks of the field post dated August 24, 1942 and the handwritten address in Rostov-on-Don, which was occupied at that time, have been preserved on the card. Guarantee of authenticity.
