"Sovetskij Sojuz" (Soviet Union - in English) was of A4 format like 32
pages with rather "sweet" articles about Soviet life and a picture
(_reprodukcija_) inside. It was obligatory to sign for it for those
who worked abroad. The pictures could be put on the walls. It was not
very well known inside the country.
Another magazine was "Sputnik". It was really very good. It was also for
export, but very vivid and not too flat (resembles by format "Reader's
digest" if one fills it with politics).
Published by the govt of US the magazine "America" (50 kopeek almost
A4 12 times a year) and by Gr.Britain "Anglia" (40 kopeek - 1/2 A4 6 times a
year) were allowed for subscription among _nomenklatura_. Anglia was
less filled with propaganda...
Years ago I had almost full collection of "Amerika" and "Anglia" at my dacha...
