This Soviet propaganda poster features a powerful steam locomotive charging forward against a deep blue background, symbolizing industrial progress and discipline. The smoke from the engine carries words such as “прогулы” (absenteeism), “простой” (downtime), “вредительство” (sabotage), and “пьянство” (intemperance), representing obstacles that must be overcome. The bold slogan at the bottom declares: “Социалистическим отношением к паровозу и ударничеством выполним измерители тяги” (“With a socialist attitude toward the locomotive and shock-worker enthusiasm, we will fulfill the traction indicators”), promoting labor discipline, productivity, and dedication to socialist ideals.
