    Description

    RARE - Original WWII
    RUSSIAN INVASION LEAFLET
    In Russian - Featuring:
    GENERAL ANDREY VLASOV (Traitor)
    c.1943 - Dropped on USSR
    **THIS LISTING COMPLIES WITH eBay POLICIES**
    - It is
    not for sale
    to my customers in Austria, France, Germany, Switzerland or any other country that does not allow the import of World War 2 related items
    .
    - It contains
    NO sw@st1k@s or other offensive images
    ,
    NOR did it ever
    . Since this leaflet was dropped on
    Russia
    , the authors made every effort to be non-offensive.
    - It is
    NOT
    a Germ*n-sourced piece of literature, but rather
    Russian
    . It was produced by the WWII Russian traitor/collaborator General Andrey Vlasov.
    The leaflet is a single page, 5.25" x 4", printed on both sides, designed to be dropped from the air in bulk over a populated area.  It has some notes on the back including "V.43" ... so I
    believe
    that means it was printed in 1943.
    I ran this by someone I know who is conversant in Russian, and they provided a rough translation
    The title is something to the effect of "Support Vlasov and the Liberation of Russia!" ... over a photograph of the Russian
    [Traitor/Collaborator]
    General Andrey Vlasov "chatting" with a couple of the invading country's generals.
    On the back side of the leaflet is a narrative, roughly to the effect of: "Don't worry about these foreign troops you may see around.  And don't believe those nasty rumors that this is some kind of Capitalist invasion.  They're just here to keep the peace, nothing more.  Go about your day-to-day business, tend your fields, and don't be concerned."
    At the bottom of the page -- in both Russian and the language of the invaders -- it says, "This leaflet serves as a PASS."  In other words, you're safe if you have one of these in hand ... I suppose.
    *** It will ship to you in the protective Lucite frame -- see third photo. ***
    Condition Details:
    As with all my listings (unless explicitly stated otherwise), they come from a NON-smoking environment.
    - The leaflet is in its original, as-found condition.
    - Very nicely preserved and FULLY READABLE.
    - It has yellowing and some flea bites around the edge.
    - There's a hole about the size of a rice grain, but it's not in the text area.
    The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?)  It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that
    there will be something
    about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.
    PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING.  I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.
