I've been doing some research on Yugoslav recipients of Soviet awards and I've decided to share the information I've gathered. I'll do the first class first and post some photos I've found online. There are five Yugoslav recipients of the first class. 1. Josip Broz Tito - awarded on October 4th 1944 2. Ivan Gošnjak - awarded on June 20th 1956 (also awarded with the second class) 3. Arso Jovanović - awarded on October 15th 1945 4. Koča Popović - awarded on October 15th 1945 (also awarded with the second class) 5. Aleksandar Ranković - awarded on October 15th 1945

You're absolutely right. I wrote postal stamps in a hurry because I didn't know the proper word in English for it. Thank you for the input!

Also, there were three of these little postal stamps inside the booklet.

One more thing I've actually forgot another thing I've bought in another antique shop in Skopje so here it is. Member's card of the People's Front of Macedonia. Now I have three of those cards, another two being that of the People's Front of Croatia.

Got the cross! Thank you again for helping me determine it's authenticity!

Thank you very much for the input! The museum is actually located in the same building where the Military Academy of Monastir was situated.

Thank you both!

I've already posted this in the topic below, but I think it also belongs here. I bought this photo in an antique shop in Skopje, Macedonia. Yugoslav Major-General Svetozar Vukmanović "Tempo", giving a speech in Kumanovo, Macedonia in 1945. He's wearing a Yugoslav Order of the Partisan Star 1st class, Partisan Commemorative award of 1941 and a Soviet Order of Kutuzov 1st class.

The last but not least, bought in an antique shop in Skopje. Yugoslav Major-General Svetozar Vukmanović "Tempo", giving a speech in Kumanovo, Macedonia in 1945. He's wearing a Yugoslav Order of the Partisan Star 1st class, Partisan Commemorative award of 1941 and a Soviet Order of Kutuzov 1st class. I'm really glad, I've found this gem!
