1970 Mongolian People's Army 49th Anniversary Classified Newspaper

Description

Issued in 1970 to mark the 49th anniversary of the founding of the Mongolian People’s Army (1921–1970), this classified military newspaper titled “For The Motherland” was restricted to internal use only. Highlighting decades of military strength and ideological unity, it features powerful socialist illustrations, including a missile launch and a soldier figure beside a bold “49” emblem.

This paper served both as a commemorative piece and as a classified morale publication, reflecting the height of Cold War tensions and Mongolia's strategic alignment with the communist bloc.

A rare Cold War artifact, this issue provides collectors with a direct connection to Mongolia’s military history and propaganda machinery during its socialist peak.
