The poster message is that the start of communism will bring a new beginning to the country. The poster makes people thinks that when the communism took over the governing system they will get a new start and peace. The poster conveys the message by putting pictures of the revolution in Russia and the picture of Lenin and by putting the phase describing it. The most effective part of this poster probably is the picture of Lenin because when looking at Lenin face you mostly thought of revolution.

Conclusion: Most of the poster that i come across are releated to the revolution and most about Lenin the poster makes it look positive when they are also the negative of it. I think that Russia in that time uses propaganda posters a lot to influence people to think their way because they are under revolution or other situations that needed great deal of support.
