Russian Car And Dacha Serving Tray
A faux propaganda image featuring a rural scene from the early post-war Soviet Union. Depicts a GAZ M-20 Pobeda automobile, in front of a dacha (rural summer house). Across the upper part of the image is an "M20" hood ornament, Cyrillic (Russian) text reading "ГАЗ" (GAZ) and a side ornament found on the vehicles featuring stylized Cyrillic text reading "Победа" (Pobeda). The image has been "aged" to suggest that it dates from the early post-war period. Internal Soviet propaganda often tried to inform the people how good life was in the USSR. A dacha and a car to get there signified the good life. City dwellers dreamed of having a small plot of land outside the city to flee to on summer weekends, away from the heat and dirt of the city. The Pobeda, was the first automobile manufactured for the public after the end of World War. The M20 was produced 1946 to 1958. GAZ (ГАЗ is a Russian acronym for Gorkovsky Avtomobilny Zavod - Gorsky Automobile Factory) Pobeda (Победа) is the Russian word for victory. The name was chosen because the car was first tested in 1943 when an Allied victory in World War II began to appear likely.The Pobeda was manufactured under license in Poland and a few were assembled in North Korea. The Pobeda was the first post-war Soviet-made automobile and the first Soviet vehicle to have turn signals, two electric wipers, an electric heater, and a built-in AM radio. The car came to be a symbol of postwar Soviet life and is today a popular collector's item. A total of 235,997 Pobedas were produced. A number of M20s have been extensively customized in recent years. There are even a few "muscle car" versions on the road.

This Create With Photos tray exceeded my expectations. I had ordered an acrylic tray previously that I didn't like, but this one is excellent quality. It's sturdy and has some nice weight to it. The tray surface has a glossy finish that seems like it will stand up to real use. I only wish there was a white version of this tray. The printing is wonderfully clear and crisp. I also love the high gloss finish.

This is a well made, sturdy wooden tray with a flawless black finish and lovely map on the tray surface. It is both vintage & modern at the same time. Looks exactly like the photo; does not disappoint. So nice to find something of quality individually made and not the mass-produced 'shabby chic' merchandise seen in stores. I am so pleased to be able to give this to my college-age niece for her birthday. This can be used as a tray to hold jewelry or toiletries, or hung on the wall as art. The map surface is sealed (it is slightly shiny) so would be moisture resistant. It is well worth the asking price but I was able to apply a sale code as well. Very happy with my purchase. Map is crisp & clear and sealed with a water-resitant finish.

I purchased this reindeer serving tray for myself and I love the size, the functionality, the great quality of the tray itself, the cute, colorful design, and the printing was spot on! Can't wait for Christmas to take it out again! No problems at all with my order, just love this tray! Just as you see online, colorful and fun design, the printing is fabulous. I have uploaded photos to see for yourself. Great purchase!
