About this piece

Large double-sided Soviet banner with Lenin and Marx portraits, USSR state emblem and gold fringe, 75 x 35 in. Ships worldwide from Ukraine with tracking.

From the seller's notes

This large Soviet banner is a double-sided red ceremonial flag (znamya) featuring portraits of Karl Marx and Vladimir Lenin on one side and the state emblem of the USSR on the reverse. The portraits and lettering are executed in silver-toned embroidery and paint stenciling, and the banner is finished with a classic golden fringe. At about 75 x 35 inches, it is an impressive display piece for collectors of Soviet political memorabilia.

About This Piece

Banners of this size were typically presented to factories, collective farms (kolkhozes) or military units for outstanding achievements, or carried during official parades and Soviet holidays.
