I was in a museum by choice and discovered by accident what appeared to be original Soviet-era poster art. I have no idea if it was or not. But they were original works of art, but they might have been copies of other original works. There were brush-strokes.

I have a feeling that they were copies. The exhibition included post-Soviet poster art and that gave me the feeling that some of these were sort of 'competition entries' - what that that means...

And, crucially, there was an 'original' of THE Gagarin poster. And THE Sputnik poster. Whatever they were, it was worth it. And it was a miserable cold and wet day. And the museum was lovely and friendly and warm. I felt at home.
