Soviet Order of Friendship of Peoples - S/N award & date research

[JimZ]

Gentlemen,

I'm gonna be courageous and try for the data on a third order as well as the ORB labour and Order of the badge of honour. But that's it for now. I'll move onto others once I close of this research!!

I'd now also like try to compile some data re award dates and serial numbers of the "Order of Friendship of Peoples".

Could anyone having award booklets or reseach for this order kindly send in the data and possibly scans of the award booklet showing serial number and award date so that I can attempt to compile data.

Thanks for your very kind assistance and I hope that your feedback is good enough to be able to present something of interest at a later date.

Thanks to all for your support.

Jim

(Also please see similar threads for the "Order of the Badge of Honour" and "Order of the Red Banner of Labour" - Thanks)

Sorry that the SN is not clear. Can't figure out how to adjust the scanner or the finished scan either.

Thanks. Very interesting actually to see that 32717 is dated 1983 and 43995 which is sequentially after the previous one is dated 1977. Its still too early to say if this order is gonna be one of those tricky ones. More feedback appreciated gents lets try to nail this.

Also note that 35xxxis dated 1986 so i would say 43995 is anonoluse

Thanks Alfred. A very detailed list. Are these all observed by yourself based on award books? Also what are the table colomns. I take it that the first is the order number, the second the award date....and the third colomn? Is that the document issue date perhaps? Thanks for your help and support. Data severely lacking on this order.

Regards

Jim

[Alfred]

Yes you are right, I am still working on it. Edit the list above.

May I permit myself to revive the research threads I had started in the hope that members out there who can still contribute scans and relevant information will help to amass the data on serial numbers/dates of the orders in question. Yet again.....your assisistance is always mostly appreciated.

Here you go - just in. Wanted a documented one of these for a long time.

Can these be researched?

[Ed_Haynes]

The last time I asked, there is 0% chance of research. Very sad.

[JimZ]

Indeed a pity. Same applies to labour medals such as Orders of Labour Glory, Orders of Red Banner Labour and Order of the Badge of Honour. Essentially beautiful awards in themselves they do not at present offer much if any research value. Of course, in the case of groups where military serial numbered medals/orders as well as labour serial numbered orders co-exist one would stand a better chance of getting some info.

But its always good to see these medals with an accompanying booklet. At least it gives a name and date to the order.

Researching Labour Awards

Gentlemen,

according to informations from our researcher, early Labour Awards (i.e. RBL, BoH, etc.) seem to be already researchable.

Best regards

Christian

[Ed_Haynes]

Yes, the early labor awards (if you have the document) can often (read "sometimes") be researched, though it is a lot of work digging through newspapers). I have had it done for several items.

I presume the same sort of thing COULD be done for later awards, but the amount of work involved would be mind-boggling.

[Bob]

ORder of Friendship are completely unresearchable in the archives or exception is those with low serial number? If so, how low?

I have never heard of a single one, of any number, bring researched.

I'd love to find out this is incorrect.

Here is my contribution. This must have been one of the final ones awarded before the "end".

Is the red bible the most extensive documentation of this award? Any other more elaborate book on it?

In English, I've seen no better.

I have not seen anything better, either.
