Does anyone know good collections of USSR graphic design?

Hello! Tell me if there are good selections of graphic design of the USSR?
I became interested in the origins and very often began to notice articles on Western projects called "vintage design inspiration" with huge selections of vintage posters, stamps, packaging, corporate identity, newspapers, books, maps.
We also had a lot of good design, but where is it?
And the Soviet Union had its own style, and many people like it. In many ways, it was better than what we see on the streets today. But for some reason, I rarely see Soviet design on the Internet. If anyone knows where there are such collections, sites or blogs, throw links) Maybe someone has historical resources.
Examples:

Read the history of design and you will understand that we copied everything from the rest of the world, because. there were very few of their own designers - they either dumped the whites during the immigration or Stalin shot them as freethinkers (figuratively).
And by the way, if you look at our coats of arms, just the same, the most beautiful were made before the USSR, during the USSR, flat and minimalism already went, which is not demanding on thin. taste
I advise you to read the book culture of design:

UPD: for example, here is an article about how ours copied the design from someone else's car industry: art-on.ru/rubric/transport/56391. html

Exactly - the best collections of "USSR design" are already what they stylized under the USSR after its collapse. And it is impossible to look at this case without tears.
