Do you have higher-resolution versions of these available? I would love to print some out.

Unfortunately I don’t have high-res versions, the paper versions of the posters are the exhibits of Memorial Museum of Сosmonautics located in Moscow.

In that age, soviets made a lot of advance in aerospacial technology.
Nice way to get interest of the people on Soviet’s spacial programs.

Hello,
The images in this post are grat.
I am looking for a vintage Sputnik poster and am surprised by how hard this has been so far. I am wondering anyone has access to anything that might meet my preferences:
— Bold in color (it’s a long story, but this is actually for a baby’s room)
–Sputnik 1 (although this isn’t a deal breaker)
–Something without the dog (Laika)
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks
