Czechoslovakia celebrates its border patrol, 1956

Item Details

Description

Heading: (Posters - Propaganda)
Author:
Title: DEN CS. POHRANICNI STRAZE / DAY OF CZECHOSLOVAK BORDER PATROL
Place Published:
Publisher:Orbis Publishing House
Date Published: 1956
Description: Original offset-printed poster folded into 8 panels. 96.5x67.5 cm (38x26½").

Issued by the Czechoslovakian Ministry of the Interior. The protection of borders between the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic (CSSR) and Capitalist countries of Western Europe, namely with West Germany and Austria, in the Cold War era and especially after 1951, was provided by special troops of the Pohrani?ní Stráž (English: the Border Guard) and system of engineer equipment which created the real "Iron Curtain". The purpose was to prevent citizens of the Eastern Bloc escaping to the West, although official reports stated it was to keep the enemy's spies and saboteurs out of Czechoslovakia. The border system of Czechoslovakia was not as elaborate and fortified as that of the Inner German border or the Berlin Wall, but it was considered difficult to cross the border undetected.
