Carte Maximum Postcard 12 April - Cosmonautics Day, artist identified on verso, 1978.
The size is continental 6" x 4", published by the Ministry of Communications of the USSR, circulation 50,000 copies, very small by Soviet standards. The artwork depicts the Salyut space station with two docked Soyuz spacecraft. The artist's name, Yu. Levinovskiy, is printed in the lower left-hand corner on the verso. The vertical line of text dividing the verso reads "For Carte Maximum." The commemorative postal stamp and the First Day cancel have not been applied.
In excellent condition, just microscopic corner bumps.
