Russian Christmas card from 1989, measuring 6.75 x 4.5, with a slightly smaller insert inside cover. Insert bears a sentiment in Russian and is signed at the conclusion in blue ink, “M. Gorbachev,” also in Russian. In fine condition, with a few creases to cover. Accompanied by a French translation and the original transmittal envelope. The sending of a Christmas card is quite ironic, since at the time Gorbachev was the Soviet Union President (1985-1991) where religion was not recognized. The year after this card was signed, Gorbachev was awarded the 1990 Nobel Peace Prize. RRAuction COA.
