Created by graphic artists E. Pozdnev and M. Koloss for the film's Soviet release, the design features a wonderfully comic figure of a hapless athlete laden with sports equipment, rendered in a bold two-tone palette of deep burgundy and vibrant orange.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe film starred Ferenc Szusza, an actual Hungarian football legend, lending authentic sports credibility to this gentle comedy about newcomers navigating the world of athletics. Director Márton Keleti crafted a film that served as both entertainment and subtle promotion of socialist physical culture, though its comedic tone kept it firmly in the realm of popular amusement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduced by Glavkinoprokat's own printing facilities in Moscow with a run of 25,000 copies, this poster exemplifies the distinctive visual language of Soviet film advertising. The hand-lettered Cyrillic title flows dynamically across the composition, while the illustration's energetic diagonal thrust draws the eye. A compelling artifact from the cultural exchanges between Soviet bloc nations during the early Cold War.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22.5\" x 31.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Good\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Authentic Vintage Posters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44715828478067,"sku":"P7323","price":131.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0088\/3005\/8556\/files\/edited_f1b2ee1b-3535-4578-81e6-4d2754595b44.jpg?v=1775856545","url":"https:\/\/www.authenticvintageposters.com\/en-nl\/products\/civil-a-palyan-russian-23x32-1952","provider":"Authentic Vintage Posters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
