Vintage USSR McDonalds Menu and Application

Original laminated McDonald’s menu and employment application from Moscow marking the opening of Russia’s first McDonald’s during the final years of the USSR. This historic piece features the early Soviet era McDonald’s menu written in Russian along with the official job application used for local hiring at the Moscow location, reflecting a rare moment when Western consumer culture entered the Soviet Union. The menu showcases classic items like the Big Mac hamburgers fries shakes and desserts adapted for the Soviet market, while the application highlights period specific requirements and formatting unique to the time. Both pieces display authentic period printing with visible age wear consistent with storage but no major damage, making this a highly collectible Cold War era artifact tied directly to the collapse era of the Soviet Union and the global expansion of McDonald’s.
