Riley1965 Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 GREAT Collection!!! I like the Polar Star and of course the Lenin. Doc
Christian Zulus Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 Dear usairforce,very nice collection, a lot of battle awards and a beautyful cased Red Banner of Labour.You have also the most magnificent Soviet book - in english language - about Stalin's Russia in your collection, the "Soviet Calendar" (1947). I purchased my book - excellent, almost new condition - from a private collector in Vienna about 10 years ago for USD 250,-. A lot of money, but I wanted to have that book. How much did you pay for your copy?I think, that perfect made book was a great instrument for international propagande at 30th anniversary of the October Revolution. I assume, that a lot of copies went to "friendly" states like China. Soviet orders and medals play an important role in this book - not only the Order of Victory on the cover.Best regards from Vienna, AustriaChristian Zulus
