A Cold War icon & design classic, equally common on the battlefield as in popular culture, the AK47 holds a place in the iconography of the second half of the C20th.

This is an original instructional poster giving a cut-away tour of the inner workings of the weapon, dated 1980. Additional information about the poster is printed both lower corners which I have removed from the image here as a security measure to help protect the authenticity of the poster. I am happy to provide the full image & close-ups on request.

The poster has been folded and creases can be seen but is in otherwise excellent condition, complete and free from nicks, tears or paper loss. An excellent poster of an iconic piece of military kit.
