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!

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!

It's basically a propaganda magazine. Published in US and USSR via special agreement between the US/USSR through the USSR Embassy.Stas Bush wrote:Soviet Life? That's funny.
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 TANKSDid you have some sort of run from 1985 to 1991 or what?
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.Stas Bush wrote:Soviet Life? That's funny. Did you have some sort of run from 1985 to 1991 or what?

Not from Soviet Life, but from a French book I got full of cool commie military pictures:
"Here the brave soldiers of the CSR stand ready to repel any chemical
assault from the warmongerers of either the MESS or Shepistan."
