Maybe, you seem to know that better than I do. I remember it being described during 80s as socialist realism. For example, this note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1000din-1963.jpg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:1000din-1963.jpg depicts this guy here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alija_Sirotanovi%C4%87 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alija_Sirotanovi%C4%87
Guy won the international miners contest where he shoveled 'with ease' 25kgs in one go and similar mythic stories behind it.
And every single note had a similar story behind it that furthered the myth of "workers in the spirit of socialism".
- acqq 16y ago> And every single note had a similar story behind it that furthered the myth of "workers in the spirit of socialism" In Yugoslavia AFAIK the only note in that period with the real story is the one you've mentioned (but the other person was depicted in that older note). For others, citation needed, as the Wikipedia article is very specific. Old 1000 note "Arif Heralić" then some monuments or the most famous people, or generic faces, without real stories.
- pero 16y ago'depicts this guy here' No it doesn't, as per--very explicitly--the second link.
