Remember those amazing Cold War era spy movies? Long coats, suspicious suitcases, mysterious figures, Walther PPKs, and the bear of Russia looming over the world. Russian propaganda posters have a special place in my heart, for their angular design and simple use of colour. These cards draw on the Cold War for characters, and the posters for artwork (for the artists out there, I'm talking about Russian constructivism). My biggest inspirations were Saul Bass; the unsung hero of basically every corporate logo ever, and many beautiful movie posters; Mister X, a late eighties Toronto cult comic; and, of course, the comrade who designed all those beautiful propaganda posters.
