  1. History of the power of socialism is full with mistakes and lies.
    This was the first: the so called "Revolution of October" it happened in November.
    Apart from this, the postcard is an excellent witness of that age.
    Best wishes!

  2. The October Revolution took place with an armed insurrection in Petrograd traditionally dated to 25 October 1917 Old Style Julian Calendar (O.S.), which corresponds with 7 November 1917 New Style (N.S.). Gregorian Calendar.

    Thanks for your comment.
