Published under the auspices of the USSR Ministry of Trade, this large-format magazine served as the premier visual showcase for the latest consumer goods produced by Soviet light industry and Eastern Bloc (COMECON) countries. The pages are heavily illustrated with color photography and provide detailed technical specifications and retail prices for iconic 1980s products. Highlights from these specific issues include reviews of late-Soviet electronics (such as the \"Tauras Ts-257D\" and \"Chaika Ts-280D\" color televisions, and \"Okean-221,\" \"Vega-109 Stereo,\" and \"Alpinist-320\" radios), GDR-manufactured high-fidelity audio equipment (RFT, REMA), Czechoslovakian footwear by Exico, perfumes (\"Tete-a-tete\"), modern fashion, and Leningrad porcelain. As a comprehensive catalog of 1980s material culture, the bulletin is a highly valuable primary source for researchers of Soviet industrial design, sociology of everyday life, and collectors of vintage technology and retro aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stanza Rare Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44801547239466,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0701\/6359\/5306\/files\/IMG_3279_c35809bc-b2c3-4c60-9f49-5ccd1dac1557.jpg?v=1789353521","url":"https:\/\/stanzararebooks.com\/products\/lot-of-three-issues-of-the-magazine-novye-tovary-new-goods-nos-1-2-and-6-1985-in-russian","provider":"Stanza Rare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
