This book resembles other significant Stalinist books, which were designed to construct the image of the USSR and support Stalin's cult of personality. Such propaganda books were produced with high-quality materials and designed by the most important artists of their time, such as El Lissitzky, Rodchenko, Stepanova, and Telingater. After de-Stalinization, these books were censored, with portraits of Stalin and other cult attributes cut out.
