Yuri Matrosovich in Russia hosts a fantastic online gallery of Soviet era, anti-alcohol propaganda posters, hence entitled The Museum of Anti-Alcohol Posters. I learned of Yuri’s collection via a link from the home page of Cabinet Magazine. (A favorite art, culture, curiosities and overall intelligentsia magazine Mr. AQ-V and I highly recommend subscribing to.) Unfortunately, I can not find detailed information about these Soviet posters so I am unable to tell you who the artists are, nor the years of creation. I selected the works above and below for their bold graphic modern appeal. Visit Yuri’s website to see many more posters.

These are really creative posters. It’s interesting to see how powerful design without words can be.
