MONETARY AND CLOTHING LOTTERY OF THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE OF THE RSFSR AS A REFLECTION OF SOCIO-ECONOMIC POLICY
Money and clothing lotteries are quite common all over the world. Quite large-scale circulations bring significant income to both the organizers and the state, being a fairly effective tool of state policy for voluntary attraction of funds to Finance social projects, sports and other areas of public life. The most popular lottery in the Soviet period was the money and clothing lottery of the Ministry of Finance of the RSFSR. Analyzing the registration of lottery tickets in 1958-1991 in comparison with events in the socio-economic life of the country, it showed that its implementation was aimed to a certain extent at providing citizens with scarce goods and additional amounts of money, which in turn stimulated the participation of the population in lottery draws. Holiday issues that were in high demand are considered extremely successful. The thematic and artistic design of lottery tickets clearly reflects both the main achievements and directions of development of the national economy, as well as certain significant dates and significant events related to our capital.
