    1. Finally, another document we have not seen before, 1991 Union of Retired NCO's & Officers Dues Booklet.
    2. A couple of ID Cards from the 1990's, Party ID and Free Public Transportation Card:
    3. The group also came with some interesting additional papers, including his 1977-1990 Party Dues booklet, showing him as a Party Member since 1944!
    4. 1986, here's where the huge deviation occurs. In most other MVR Officer groups I have; there is a 10 Year LSM, no other LSM appears.... Notice we have not seen a 10, or 15, in this group? He receives a 20 Year LSM in '86!
    5. 1985 again, he receives his Dimitrov Order. Why? Does not coincide with some other MVR 60th Birthday Awards we have seen??
    6. 1977, gets interesting here.... he receives an Order of Cyril & Methodius, Second Class!
    7. 1974 again, Merit in Protecting The Public Order Medal. Why was this given? True merit? Additional pat on the back?
    8. Award page for the people's Liberty. (Did you notice he signed his orders book?)
    9. 1957 he also receives his Military merit Medal. Note that this is only the second green orders book I have observed. I have another group with a 1956 award and the book is the usual yellow background, an earlier one in green. No idea as to why/where these were used.
    10. In 1953, off to Party School he goes for 4 years of political education. Courses on Soviet Ideology as well as Bulgarian. I believe this is the first time we have seen one of these booklets.
