On the visible side, there is a raised composition blending emblematic monuments of the USSR with a large stylized figure of a Russian folk dancer, dressed in a red dress adorned with blue, white, and orange geometric patterns. The beige-toned background highlights various recognizable architectural structures, such as Orthodox domes, columns, and monumental buildings, evoking the cultural and historical diversity of the former Soviet Union.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe center of the sleeve features an inscription in Cyrillic script, \"ПОСЕТИТЕ СССР\" (\"Visit the USSR\"), surrounding the dancer. At the bottom, the \"Intourist\" logo and name, the main official tourism organization in the USSR, are displayed, along with a mention in Cyrillic. The overall graphic design is treated in a style that is both retro and constructivist, characteristic of many Soviet visual productions from the second half of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe visual aspect of the sleeve combines an impression of relief and matte textures, with a play of sober colors for the background and brighter ones for the central figure. No technical details or musical titles are visible on the front of the sleeve. The cover is square, conforming to the standard format for 45 rpm records, with slightly rounded corners and a refined presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe record is not visible in the photo; only the front of the sleeve is shown. No mention of date or artist appears in this view, but the graphic style and the Intourist logo suggest that it was likely produced between the 1970s and 1980s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis type of sleeve attracts attention due to its dynamic illustration and its graphic design evocative of the Soviet period, making it a sought-after item for its aesthetics and historical interest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item, sold as is.
