On the reverse side there is an inscription - the 7th Summer Spartakiad of the peoples of the USSR. A young man and a girl are athletes. The symbol of the USSR Olympiad is three rays and a star. VII Summer Spartakiad. The Spartakiad was held from July 22 to August 4 in several cities at once – Moscow, Leningrad, Riga, Vilnius, Tallinn and Kiev. For the first time in the history of the Spartakiads of the peoples of the USSR, foreigners were allowed to start at this tournament. A total of 8,300 Soviet athletes and more than 2,000 athletes from 84 other countries participated in the finals. The athletes competed in two tournaments: the "main" and the "international". The first place in the number of awards was taken by the national team of the RSFSR. It should be noted that this event somehow faded against the background of the Moscow Olympics that took place the following year, 1980. Open sources have kept a minimum of information about how the 1979 summer launches took place. We managed to find a rare newsreel about the final football match between the teams of the RSFSR and Georgia, which was commented on by Yuri Ozerov himself. Of course, the VII Summer Spartakiad became a dress rehearsal for the future Olympics. By 1979, the main Olympic facilities had already been built and tested – it was not for nothing that the competitions were held in Tallinn, Leningrad, and Kiev. At the 7th Spartakiad, the Soviet leadership rehearsed another important point for the future – the production of souvenirs, in particular, badges, award medals and other paraphernalia. In 1979, for the first time in the history of the Soviet Spartakiads, an unprecedented number of badges, distinctive emblems and badges were issued. Judge for yourself: service badges with a completely identical design, but different colors were issued to members of the organizing committee, the chief and simple judge, the chief and simple secretary, the press, the coach, the guest, the head, the doctor, the participant… Separate badges, in several versions, were made for each sport in which athletes competed. But there were also table medallions, plaques and so on.100% ORIGINAL! USSR Good condition (see photo) nice and rare item for your collection Ask me any questions.
