After all, postcards keep the spirit of time. Unmistakably you will learn New Year's postcards of the USSR. So, we go to the last century.
New Year's postcards of the 60s
First soviet postcards appeared in 1953. I don't have a new year postcard of the 50s, but there are several of the 60s. The most expensive one for me that with a snowman. She is addressed to my grandfather, Grandma and Father, when he was still a student. Once I found it in old documents and carefully storing until now. Yes, and a snowman in the header-Ushanka is very pretty. He was painted by the artist Konstantin Zotov. On the back of the postcards small font A poem is printed in the left corner:
New Year! New Year!

On the rink is not new to

On the cheerful dance!
New Year's postcards of the 70s
Among the postcards of this period of time, two perhaps the most valuable. Their author of the artist V. Zarubin. Most of the Zarubin's postcards that are available from me, released in the 80s, and these two 69 and 70 years of release.
In the postcards of the 70s, double art cards appear, which were released with the envelope. Envelopes, unfortunately not survived. I remember in childhood, I really liked one of the double postcards, that with a black cat. Painted her artist - Vasnetsov, just not the same, and relative - Yuri Alekseevich. But also known. He born in the USSR he is familiar to children's books, for example, "Konk-Gorbok", "Koshkin House", "Three Bear".
New Year's postcards of the 80s
So, the eighties! The years of my childhood. I have a lot of postcards, because I consciously collected them. Collectors were at all times. From my childhood friends who collected postcards, who calendars who are icons. I am just a little. But the collection of cards is the most numerous. It is difficult to place all the New Year's postcards of that time here, I will show only individual. Let's start, of course, from the works of the artist Zarubina. Seeing them, many now adult people remember their childhood.
Vladimir Ivanovich Zarubin was born in 1925 in the family of an engineer. During the war, along with other teenagers got into the fascist camp. Released was in the 45th year. Returning to his homeland, served in the army. Just at this time and there was an interest in drawing. After the service, Vladimir Zarubin settled on the plant by the artist. Then he entered the courses of multiplot artists at the Soyuzuzut Film, at the end of which began to work there. In addition to creating cartoons, the artist carried away the postal miniature, began to draw postcards. This lesson has become the main thing for him after the illness, because of which he could only work at home.
Zarubin's postcards were in demand, images were drawn with images for the wall newslette and shop windows, which were painted for the new year. And now many who lived in the Soviet Union, at the sight of these postcards, they experience warm feelings, as if returned to their childhood or youth.
Another famous artist The postcards of the time - Vladimir Ivanovich Chetverikov. He was born in 1943 in the family of military personnel. Drew since childhood. His first personal exhibition was held in children's gardenWhen the artist was 5 years old. Vladimir Chetverikov visited a circle visual arts, graduated from the department of graphics of the Stroganovsky school. In the postal miniature began working since 1978. More than 100 postcards and telegrams released the artist Vladimir Chetverikov.
Postcards of the 90s
1990 The year of production ends my collection of Soviet New Year cards. Artists still worked on them. Then Soviet Union Not. Imported postcards with sparkles appear on sale.
Zero - so called the years of the first decade of the 21st century. At this time, postcards with ready-made congratulations poems are popular. I remember, wanting to congratulate someone, we chose the suitable verse, and did not really matter how the postcard looked like. However, it quickly bored, because much more valuable when the postcard was signed by itself. I also liked funny postcards with merry inscriptions.
I bring to your attention a selection of postcards "Happy New Year!" 50-60s.
My favorite is a postcard of the artist L. Allas, where the past passersby rushing home. With such pleasure, I always look at it!
