This postcard commemorates P.S. Dernov, Hero of the Soviet Union.  This award was the highest award given for feats performed in the service of the USSR.  11,700+ medals given in WWII, I don't know if there is a postcard for each one!

'Posliy Tunisa' is what the cyrrilic says; the first word means "after" (now that I look it up in my dictionary!)  so, yeah, "After Tunisia" not getting kicked back to Tunisia.

The printing quality of this postcard is very poor; a double image of the text caption and poor color quality give away the fact that this is a reproduction from 1985 of a 1941 postcard/poster showing a Russian peasant bowing to the German invader at first but then turning into a partisan and fighting back at the invader.

These 3 items are folded letter stationery printed with Soviet propaganda anti-Nazi images.  The paper and printing quality is low so the text is hard to read.  They are unused--no message or address--except they bear a postmark cancel dated March, 1943.
The top one shows Hitler with a bandage or cast on his right foot stepping on the neck of a prostrate woman bound with rope.  His uniform and left boot are well worn.  There appears to be a face drawn on the toes of the cast.
The second item is printed heavily in black ink and shows Hitler giving a speech probably.
The last one shows Goebels heading a meeting of skeletons and grave markers, implying everyone under him has died, his followers are dead or perhaps the dead do his bidding.

at 1943 - just an idea - the right foot of Hitler in the first cartoon could significate Italy?

left foot could be Italy: 'boot'
on the floor could be France
right foot...Germany itself?

Great images, Fred!  I love to collect Napoleon-related images, too, so the Hitler=Napoleon (and the same will happen to him) images are great!  the art work and colors in the 2nd one are great, too.
