Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Soviet Army hand-made postcard, 1987.
Due to lack of colorful postcards, particularly in the Soviet Army units in Afghanistan (of course, there were plenty standard so called 'army' covers without any pictures and stamps of 0.5 и 1 kopecks value), the soldiers made postcards themselves. They took a colorful poster or wall-paper on thick paper, cut out 'postcards' and drew address lines and post code boxes on the reverse side. No stamps were required for sending soldiers' mail, and all such hand-made postcards reached the addressees successfully.
This unused postcard is drawn in hard pencil on reverse side of embossed paper. The postcard has a colorful drawing on its other side.
Русский: Открытка самодельная армейская.
В условиях постоянного дефицита, особенно в Афганистане, в Советской Армии красочных открыток (в избытке были только т.н. "армейские" конверты без рисунков и марок по 0,5 и 1 копейке) для отправки домой, открытки делали сами: брали красочный плакат либо красивые обои на плотной бумаге, вырезали из них "открытки" и рисовали на обратной стороне графы для письма (слева), индекса (слева внизу), адреса туда (справа вверху) и адреса обратного (справа внизу). Открытки военнослужащих срочной службы пересылались бесплатно (марка не требовалась), и все такие "самоделки" доходили до адресатов.
Данная неотправленная открытка разграфлена твёрдым карандашом на обратной стороне тиснёной бумаги. На обратной стороне красочный рисунок.
