Poster made in the Soviet Union, 1985. The poster is not in the best condition. This will reflect in the price. The poster was made for the upcoming Congress of the CPSU (Communist Party Soviet Union) in 1986. The text on the poster reads:”XXVII Congress of the CPSU. The Leninist Party Congress celebrated high achievements in labor”.
The 27th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union was held from 25 February to 6 March 1986 in Moscow. This was the first congress presided over by Mikhail Gorbachev as General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU. In accordance with the pattern set 20 years earlier by Leonid Brezhnev, the congress occurred five years after the previous CPSU Congress.
Much had changed in those five years. Key figures of Soviet politics, Mikhail Suslov, Leonid Brezhnev, Yuri Andropov, Dmitriy Ustinov, and Konstantin Chernenko had died, and Mikhail Gorbachev had become General Secretary of the Party. For this reason the congress was widely anticipated, both at home and abroad, as an indicator of Gorbachev’s new policies and directions. The congress was attended by 4993 delegates. It elected the Central Committee of the 27th term.
