English translation: UKRAINIAN REPUBLICAN COUNCIL OF VOLUNTARY SPORTS SOCIETY OF RAILWAY WORKERS “LOKOMOTIV” XXVI CONGRESS OF THE CPSU – FROM MASS TO NATIONAL-WIDE SPORTS MOVEMENT! A MONTH OF AGITATION AND PROMOTION OF PHYSICAL CULTURE AND SPORT. This original Soviet poster was produced in connection with the 26th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU) and promotes a “Month of Agitation and Propaganda of Physical Culture and Sport.” Issued by the Ukrainian Republican Council of the Lokomotiv Sports Society, the poster aimed to elevate mass participation in fitness to a nationwide movement—a reflection of Brezhnev-era policy uniting health, sport, and ideology. Style The poster uses diagonal red-blue type and marching silhouettes to evoke movement and collectivist energy. The style is dynamic, sporty, and futuristic—a hallmark of late Soviet socialist realism. The message of national strength through unified athletic participation is central to the aesthetic. Artist The poster is signed Е.Я. (Yegorov Y.A.). Unfortunately, detailed information about this artist remains unknown. The signature placement and design quality suggest an experienced Soviet visual propagandist of the early 1980s. Condition Very good condition overall. Poster is flat and well-preserved, with vibrant color tones. Light signs of age or storage, but no major damage. It will be shipped rolled securely in a cardboard tube. Additional photos available upon request. PavloPosters – Where history and art
