For those of you into science fiction, especially Golden Age futuristic art, Dark Roasted Blend has a treat for you:

This is the start of a new series, collection of the most inspiring & hard-to-find retro-futuristic graphics. We will try to stay away from the well-known American pulp & book cover illustrations and instead will focus on the artwork from rather unlikely sources: Soviet & Eastern Bloc "popular tech & science" magazines, German, Italian, British fantastic illustrations and promotional literature - all from the Golden Age of Retro-Future (from 1930s to 1970s). Click to enlarge most images.

I don't recall ever seeing any of these fascinating Soviet Bloc images, but I'd sure like to see more.
