Description:

The poster was released in 1929, in the beginning year of the fight against alcoholism of 1929-1930. It was created by I. Yang and A. Chernomyrdik.
Artists Nikolai Mikhailov, Iosif Yang, and Avenir Chernomyrdik, in this poster, depict a citizen whose alcoholism began with a single "small glass" and grew into a problem for the entire Factory.

In a small glass
in this one
may sink
a huge factory

The bottom slogan on the poster is in a form of poem, created by V. Mayakovskiy in 1929: "From the union of working people,
(we) will expel(kick out) drinkers!"

в маленьком стакане
в этом вот
может утонуть
огромный завод
