Original vintage Soviet propaganda poster to promote The All-Union Leninist Young Communist League (Komsomol) featuring a photograph of the pilot and cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin (Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin; 1934-1968) in uniform and smiling as he waves in front of a slanted red star with the caption - Forward, Komsomol Generation! ??????, ????????????? ?????! - diagonally above. The political youth organisation known as Komsomol (an abbreviation of the Russian Kommunisticheskiy Soyuz Molodyozhi) was a Communist youth group founded in 1918; after the unification of the USSR in 1922, it became the youth division of the All-Union Communist Party. Yuri Gagarin became the first person in space on 12 April 1961. Good condition, light creasing, paper browned.
