For the Defense of the Motherland T-Shirt

"На Защиту Родины" — For the Defense of the Motherland. This shirt reproduces a genuine 1941 Soviet war poster, printed in the first desperate months after Operation Barbarossa tore through the western USSR. Red Army soldiers march forward in a wall of orange and red, artillery thundering at their backs and fighter planes filling the sky above. The Eastern Front was the largest and bloodiest theater of the entire war, and the art made to sustain it was unlike anything produced anywhere else. This is the real thing.
