Friendship: An illustrated Youth Monthly

13

Friendship: An Illustrated Youth Monthly (No. 3, March 1958) is an English-language Soviet magazine published by the Ministry of Public Education of the USSR as part of its international youth outreach during the Cold War. The publication combines photography, illustration, and structured editorial layouts typical of mid-century magazine design. Its visual language features expressive script lettering for the title paired with clear, functional type for body text, establishing a readable hierarchy across the issue. Designed to appeal to young international audiences, Friendship demonstrates how graphic design and illustration were used to present cultural narratives and ideals through accessible, visually engaging print media.
