Oh wow props
It seems odd that a Russian would name blocks after US states.
This is fake. They do have names, but they are: L, J, Z, S, I, T, and O.
What, no they’re ⅂, ᒋ, Z, S, I, T, and O.
Y’know what, I’ve always called them LJZSITO, and I can find plenty of sources to support that, but I can’t find an authoritative source for it. I feel like I’m about to go down a research rabbithole…
I’m pretty sure that was a photocopied image unfortunately.
Not sure whether I’m more tickled by the fact that the pieces had names or that you looked at the manual :)

And the melody is based on a Soviet march song. (Link leads to YouTube song)
Korobeiniki is a folk song that’s older than the Soviet Union. The Red Army Choir played a lot of Russian folk music.
