Top 200 Magazine Covers. USSR 1960-1970 (English / Russian)

The album features covers of the most popular Soviet magazines published in the 1960s. On the one hand, this is an objective look at the past, the period that went down in history under the name of the “Khrushchev thaw”, at what issues worried people, what topics were the most relevant. The reader will see how the design of publications changed depending on the trends of the era, how politics influenced art. On the other hand, this is a subjective view of "the country on itself", on how the USSR was in the domestic and foreign arenas.

The book contains more than 200 scans of high-resolution magazine covers, preceded by an overview article on the specifics of the Soviet press of that period, as well as more than fifty mini-comments to specific magazines. The text is given in English and Russian. The publication will be of interest to those who study the history of the 20th century, as well as designers and illustrators.
