Lab coat with the slogan 'space is ours'

This laboratory coat's owner daubed the slogan 'space is ours' as an improvised celebration when Yuri Gagarin became the first human to launch into space. Thousands had gathered in Moscow's Red Square to cheer Gagarin as he stood with Soviet premier Khrushchev on Lenin's mausoleum.
