So I recently bought a whole stack of Soviet Life magazines:
And one of the first articles I found was:
Those damn communists. Preparing ahead of time for War in Georgia!

I think that's the picture the CIA is using, for target identification...

Poor BADGERS. And we destroyed B-52s for that...
I'm sure that the Police in Russia get a lot of drive by Maximings.
We shall put the McDonald's there, Comrade!

Soviet Life?
That's funny. Did you have some sort of run from 1985 to 1991 or what?

It's basically a propaganda magazine. Published in US and USSR via special agreement between the US/USSR through the USSR Embassy.
Much of the work in it seems to be by Novosti.

No; I just saw them by accident at my used bookstore and grabbed them all; unfortunately, they did not focus on what I liked; GUNS AND TANKS
Just sappy human interest stories.
I do have the 1990 one; and it's so fun reading THAT one, knowing the Fall is months away.

The last book from the first pic looks like it was from 1990.
