What your opinion? I think it a good cross, but it is little bit strange. Regards, Roman

I do not have time for trips to Vienna. I should engage the special employee in Russia and to send it on searches to archive. Which fragment I have resulted lists, copy it is impossible. Therefore to have to copy lists hands. I yet have not finished. At me is no more than 30 % of a material but when I will finish list drawing up I will necessarily share.

It is the general list of compensations for German officers. But it not one book, and separate folders with very many corrections. Heavy work... Roman

If you lived in Russia at you would be more portraits. In my collection more than 2000 portraits, but I collect only portraits of military men which lived in my city. At me as it is a lot of doubles, but not all so are good as a portrait of general Korobkov.

It is very rare Award of Work of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic. Roman

I do search in the Austrian military archive and I think, that not less than 20 % awarded with austro-hungarian awards have received not one award. But it concerns to officers. For the others two austro-hungarian awards meet seldom.

Hi Enzo, Fortunately at me is not present superfluous 700.000 euro for purchase of this star. The Russian experts assert, that the star was made in 1930th years. But have made absolutely other star, to be exact the Star of the Award of Sacred Andrey. And already presently a star have altered. Regards, Roman

Elmar, Hallmarks are put on Russian award. Best wishes, Roman

Hello, These are bad Hallmarks? Best wishes, Roman

Rick, You a little not correctly understand a legal situation. Russia not successors or Stalin's continuers. Yes, Russia the successor of the USSR, but it concerns payments of the international debts. Anybody except Russia has not wanted to pay debts of the USSR. And you think at once, that in Russia new Stalin etc. I invite you to arrive to Russia and to look all the eyes. Believe to me, that else 10 years back we lived much worse. As well as it is not pleasant to you to me, that to collectors forbid to collect awards of the country as collectors hold in remembrance people forgotten by the descendants. You do not think, what someone will come to you home and will demand to give the Soviet awards? All excitements are vain. That that is spoken by officials about return of the Soviet awards is for ears of the Russian voters. Regards Roman

Elmar, Nobody can take away from you the Soviet awards if you want to sell them. If someone returns awards to Russia is a good will and no more that. But it will be pleasant to you to know that the award being at you is stolen? Here on it also hide numbers at auctions. Suddenly somewhere will write, that this award is stolen. Steal awards not only from veterans, but also at collectors. Thus it is necessary to consider, that very much the most part of the Soviet awards on sale at the western auctions are fakes. At the Russian forums it is often possible to meet discussions of the western auctions and unfortunately even large auctions do not hesitate to sell a forgery. Roman
