Soyuz 38 (Soyuz Programme) Sticker - Design Description

This vinyl kiss-cut decal commemorates the historic Soyuz 38 mission, a pivotal moment in international space exploration. The design boldly captures the essence of this Soviet-Cuban collaboration through a striking visual narrative.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central focus of the design is a stylized representation of the Soyuz spacecraft, depicted in its characteristic three-module configuration. The spacecraft is rendered in clean lines and bold colors, evoking a sense of technological prowess and the excitement of space travel. The inclusion of the iconic "Soyuz" lettering reinforces its affiliation with the Soviet space program.

Symbolism and Meaning

The design incorporates the flags of the Soviet Union and Cuba, prominently displayed alongside the spacecraft. This visual juxtaposition immediately signifies the international partnership that defined the Soyuz 38 mission and the Intercosmos program. The Cuban flag's presence is particularly significant, as it celebrates Arnaldo Tamayo Méndez's achievement as the first Cuban and first person of African descent in space.

The overall design exudes a retro aesthetic, inspired by the graphic styles prevalent during the Cold War era. This style not only reflects the historical context of the mission but also enhances the sticker's collectibility and appeal to space enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The carefully chosen color palette, featuring reds, whites, and blues, is evocative of both nations involved in the mission.

Glossy kiss-cut vinyl stickers made for smooth, indoor surfaces — laptops, journals, mirrors, and other finished items. Crisp edges, vivid color, strong hold, and not waterproof.

What “kiss-cut” means: the blade cuts the vinyl layer into the exact shape while leaving the backing liner whole, so pieces separate cleanly and lift off the sheet without tearing. It’s the neatest way to produce shaped stickers and multi-piece sheets.

  • Material: reliable vinyl face with a permanent acrylic adhesive formulated for smooth, non-porous surfaces.
  • Finish: glossy surface that enhances contrast and depth without feeling overly reflective.
  • Printing: eco-solvent inks provide dense color and crisp detail for fine lines and gradients.
  • Use case: intended for indoor environments only — not waterproof. Not recommended for continuous exposure to moisture or dishwashing.
  • Application friendly: easy-peel backing and a liner that releases cleanly to help reduce bubbles and misfeeds during placement.

These stickers perform best on smooth, dust-free surfaces — think laptop lids, sealed notebooks, glass, mirrors, finished shelving and lockers. They’ll stick well where the surface is flat and clean; avoid rough wood, silicone, fabric, and heavily textured paint.

  1. Clean: remove dust and oils with a lint-free cloth. For stubborn grime, use a mild soap and water rinse; let the area dry completely.
  2. Align: peel a corner, position carefully, then press the center down first.
  3. Smooth: work outward from the center with a soft card or a thumb to push air out and ensure the edges set down firmly.

Tip: give the adhesive 24 hours to fully settle before heavy handling. These are not designed for outdoor or wet conditions.

  • Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth, moving from the center outward to avoid scratching the gloss.
  • For light marks, a barely damp microfiber will lift residue — blot, don’t scrub, and dry right away.
  • Avoid bleach, solvents, abrasive pads, and steam; moisture or harsh chemicals can lift edges and fade inks.

Reminder: these stickers are not waterproof. Keep them away from sinks, outdoor exposure, and dishwasher cycles to maintain adhesion and finish.

Sizes are measured across the sticker’s longest side. For example, a 3″ sticker is 3 inches across its largest dimension (height or width, depending on the shape).

The kiss-cut follows the sticker’s outline for a tidy border; complex shapes can show small variances, but the advertised measurement refers to the maximum edge-to-edge length.
