There was a time that a t-shirt bearing the cyrillic letters of the old Soviet Union, CCCP, was hip and cool, and even made a liberal statement. Maybe you were for the workers and your little hat with the red star was your endorsement of the ideal of communism, but not the reality of socialism. Today these relics might imply collusion – a word that is in the news a lot lately. My Russian watch is still pretty cool though. And so is the soldier’s jacket with the medals that my mom traded for on trip to Gorbachev-era Russia.
