Inscriptions

Having climbed into our coffers, he steals our feed, acquiring valuable food for nothing. \r\nCitizens! Look at them both! This harmful person is turning tens of tons of sugar into moonshine. \r\nYou need a special zeal to repel such people! \r\nParasites and loafers love to hang around the markets.\r\nThese crooks spit on the honest work of the collective farm. \r\nWe will have no mercy with such vile personalities! \r\n\r\nLL: artist: O. Maslyakov\r\n[printing information]\r\nLC: "Soviet Artist" Publisher, Moscow, 1964\r\nLR: [printing press]
