The Origins of the Soviet Star

English Russia has a photo album post about the origins of the Soviet star. 


I did not know the first symbol of the Bolsheviks was a double-headed eagle. 

I also learned that the star was not initially red. 

A lot goes into the design of a symbol under which millions die early deaths.
