What it is
A 1920 ROSTA colour lithograph by Vladimir Mayakovsky, 53 by 71 cm: to the Polish front, under the rifle, quickly, if you do not want to live under the lord's yoke.
Why it matters
The Polish-Soviet War of 1920 was the year's great mobilisation, and ROSTA answered it in verse and pictures within days.
What to notice
The sheet is wider than tall, the ROSTA format, with the rhyme running across it.
Recruitment written as a couplet.
