That's interesting. My guess is the bottom row ribbons (Order and Medal for Bravery and Order of Labour 3rd class) belonged to the wife of the other ribbons' owner and they were eventually sewn together. This is just a wild guess!

will never be able to know for sure, im glad i have it tho

its all on the same cloth

Muh, I like the one on the right but this one doesn't seem genuine to me. Ribbons are original but the combination and order of precedence is highly unlikely. I think that the first two rows are genuine but it seems like the bottom row was added later. It seems like it is attached to the cardboard which is sewn to the top two rows of a ribbon bar.

 

i tought the same but the cardboard doesn't seem to hold anything, its just there

welp a year later, heres my ribbons, nothing special but i like the grouping


Also got theese

It's nice to see the titovka coming back home since most of the stuff that went abroad most likely never will.

Yeah i agree, tho its sad to see how some of the stuff that never left home suffered worse fates..

Titovka made from some Royal Yugoslav Army (Interwar) Uniforms

Interesting stuff in Albania, like always!

Let's post captured items here!

Sure! 

The most common captured items that Yugo partisans had were Italian,German and Ustasa ones 
This was mostly: 
-uniforms
-belts
-ammo pouches
-canteens & mess tins

(- Guns ofc)


what stuff they captured/used the most is fully depending on the country (Montenegro,Serbia,Croatia etc..)


What about Titovkas? What were they made of.. 
I have no idea and was hoping someone here could help, my guess it that it was locally produced.
Theese 2 seem to be made out of Croatian Domobran Uniforms

@Drugo 


One more with the same stamps and material, any idea whats the cockade tho?

Hello Muh,

 

I don't see any obvious red flags with your cap. Fabric, inner lining, black thread, red star cloth are all consistent with a late war or early post war titovka. That said, most of the ones I've seen had no stamps. The stamps themselves certainly indicate that this specimen was never really used, as they tended to disappear rather quickly with wear and sweat. 

 

It could also be a movie prop, I'm not ruling that out. Finally, it could even be an original military titovka that ended up as movie prop, since the JA was very much involved in supporting the movie industry, both through their own productions (Zastava Film) and state film productions (Avala Film). When Avala Film went bankrupt in the mid 2000s, many such scene costumes and accessories came out. It's hard to tell what's what nowadays.

Yes I Forgot To Follow Up On The Post, This was a Titovka i was considering to buy, but i decided to try and find a different one.. Thankfully i ran into 2 nice examples and one of the sellers i got a Titovka from, said that he got many of his from one of the places where a movie was filmed. Stamps are 100% a indicator of a movie used one but it doesn't mean that its not a real one.

@El Ninja Your 100% right, i just wanted to try and point out some (obvious) red flags

I Couldn't Find And Guide/Tips Online For Og Partisan Titovkas. 
Soo Why don't We Make One?!

I Will Start Off, I Was Offered This One, I Asked For Few Opinions.. I Got Some Positive Ones, But Mostly Negative (That Its A Movie Prop) Mostly Cuz Of The Stamp Inside (The Stamp Itself, And No Wear)
If Someone Thinks Otherwise I Would Love To Hear The Opinions!
