I don't know what language this is so I can't post it in the appropriate language sub-forum, so if someone would kindly translate the text I'd be greatly appreciative.

Just got the poster at a thrift store, love the image, but have no idea what it says. I'm pretty sure it's referring to the first of may but I'm not sure. Any help?

Thanks to any and all.

Looks like the cyrillic alphabet.

The first part seems to be "Da zdravstvuyet", or "long live", according to Google. The last word seems to be party or parties in Czech (maybe Sam B can help you?).

Da zdravstvuet prazdnik trudyashchikhsya vsekh stran!
Да здравствует праздник трудящихся всех стран!
Long live the holiday of workers of all countries!

According to google translate.

Up at the top you'll see it reads 1 Maya, it's a Mayday poster

Cool poster, bro.

Why can't I find cool stuff like this at the thrift stores?
