The Soviet postage stamp. A tiny scrap of paper with a painstakingly drawn image and precisely defined subject matter. Stamps were generally issued to commemorate anniversaries and victories, or printed in honour of eminent cosmonauts and scientists; they marked scientific and cultural achievements or celebrated events of State significance. Stamps were stuck on envelopes whenever a letter was dispatched, whether to friends, colleagues or newspaper editors…Letters conveyed hope, joy and emotions, describing people`s everyday lives and containing personal impressions or emotional reactions to official «events of State significance». Essentially each envelope pasted with a stamp and the letter enclosed within brought together the history of the State and the destiny of an individual human being.
