Obviously the USSR were very proud of their successes in space:
They had sent the ever first satellite (Sputnik, 1957), the first animal (dog “Laika”, 1957) and the first man in space (Juri Gagarin, 1961).
The first space missile on the moon (Lunik 2, 1959) and the first space station in the orbit (Saljut 1, 1971) came from the USSR.
those are not christmas cards, if you take a look at the writing on the cards, each one says "happy new year"
the CCCP was officially atheist, they dont celebrate christmas officially, christmas was never that big of a holiday there.
