A scene with two smiling workers shaking hands: a worker from Ostrava (the one on the left wearing a red tie) and a worker from Stalingrad (the one on the right wearing a kosovorotka shirt). The figures stand against a background with an industrial theme. In the center between the workers there is a brightly shining red five-beam star. Below are the inscriptions: “Družba Ostravsko-Stalingrad” and “Bez hrdinství stalingradských nebylo by naší svobody!” (We would not be able to enjoy our freedom, if not for the heroic Stalingrad defense!).
