The exhibition was founded on February 17, 1935, as the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition (VSKhV). Vyacheslav Oltarzhevsky's master plan was approved in April 1936, and the first show season was announced in July 1937 and was designed as a "City of Exhibitions" with streets and public spaces, which was very common in the 1930s of the 20th century.

Made of dark lacquered wood and decorated with rice straw.
The box was bought at the exhibition sometime in the 1960s, as can be seen from the atom and space rocket images, the great developments of that time.
All decorations are made of rice straw.
 9.7 x 6 x 5 cm
