It's supposed to be something with "constructivism" art. What does it say?

  1. It's a classical Russian advertisement poster from 1920s promoting baby pacifiers.

    The text says:

    There are no better pacifiers whatsoever.

    I'll suck them until the old age.

    In stores everywhere.

    Rezinotrest { the manufacturer - literally "The Rubber Trust" }.

    Misanthropist put it down quite well too.

    This text, by the way was written by the famous Russian poet Vladimir Mayakovsky. Aleksandr Rodchenko designed the poster.


  2. There never were and never will be better pacifiers. Willing to suck (on the pacifiers) until old age. Sold everywhere. Rezinotrest. (the name of the rubber making company)

  3. I'm pretty horrible and you are better off asking this in the Languages section of the Society & Culture section, but I'll try it anyway.

    "The best dummies

    were not and are not

    ready to suck about old years.

    They're on sale everywhere.

    ????"

    eep!  That's not good at all.  Yeah, you'll want to ask someone else, but at least I can tell you how to pronounce the words...

    "Loochsheekh sosok

    nye blo ee nyet

    gotov sosat do starkh let

    prodayootcya vezdye

    rezeenotrest"
