Stolichnaya Vodka adverts remix the most notorious symbols of the USSR substituting the key image with lemons or slices.

This advert represents Mikhail Gorbachev, recognizable by the scar on his forehead. Other posters feature the Kremlin, the famous Russian Dolls (Matryoshka), the Mammer-and-Sickle, and the Sputnik.
