This is the poster after restoration. It now hangs in my dorm room by my phone pole. The poster is by Viktor Borisovich Koretskij (1909-1998) who designed quite a bit of posters in the Soviet Union. The before shot [id=255880531] shows the heavy creasing and tape. Restoration done by Chris Cloutier at www.posterfix.com. I forgot to put the translation "Glory to inspired work and science!"
