      Thanks Gerd I will have to make some time to pull them from the case and scan them. I have them all mixed together in the one large shadow box.(dont worry, I do know which medals go with what groups) I am going to get some ryker mounts so that I can store the groups together with their books.

      Nice medals!!! I have never seen one mounted on a bar like that!! Also, nice use of the Air Medal Box!

      Thanks Rick! This medal grouping was my first significant piece for my Soviet collection. (20 Jubilee book and medal) I bought it from Igor back in 1992... before he was on line or even had a running catalog. Most of my collection actually came from him!

      Here it is... magnified another 200%. I think that this is the best I will get.
    7. Paul R
      I dunno... it appears to be in a couple of languages! There is a portion of the stamp that appears to be in Russian as well. I wish the entire stamp was present!

      Thank you Ed, for you compliment! I bought these years ago and almost sold them for what would have been a song about a year ago. I am glad that I did not!!! Rick, Here are the photos you were asking about. I hope that they help. First up is the full photo of the Jubilee Medal awardee

      Finally, The award. 1966. Most likely a long service medal? Thank you all for looking.

      NExt up is my first documented medal I bought in 1992 for a whopping 200 dollars. I dont know what they go for now, but I assume they are a lot more!

      This grouping has the Order of Red Banner of Labor, Order of Friendship, Order of Honor, and Order of the October Revolution.

      I am taking a few moments to repost with better scans, my order books. I do have the medals and orders as well, yet there has been some interest in the books. I look forward to any questions or comments. Regards Paul Reck

      I am afraid that the only version I have is the later version. I cannot make an educated comment on this one. From what I know, it looks OK. Regards Paul
    25. Paul R
      Interesting combination. All things aside, the major thing that I do not like about it is the absence of the Hindenburg Cross. Can we please see a shot of the reverse? Thanks! Paul
