The iron grip of the Soviet Union not only squeezed the necks of the people, but also the necks of their beer bottles. Here are some of the most terrifying anti-booze posters you'll ever see...

Just when they thought Stalin’s pseudo-socialist dictatorship couldn’t get any worse, the people of the USSR were hit with a life long drinking ban. “Not even a drop!” as one of the overly aggressive posters above states.

We found this at Retronaut, head over and have a look.

consider the rampent alcoholism in post-soviet russia and there is perfectly good reason for anti-drinking campaigns. Don't seem too different to the anti-smoking stuff they have here.
