    Hallo,

    Hi Rick!

    I got an translation, hope it's right:

    Korniliaev Zahar Michailiovitsch

    eh, read for yourself...

    What's wrong with the ribbon?

    Zakhar, other than that. "x" is that smoker's phlegm/cat coughing up a furball/chawin tabacky pre-spitoon "hrrrreck" noise.

    It's too fuzzy-- the middle bit looks like a cross between the Lenin 1970 Centenary and the Chernobyl badges, and the non-matching green and blue edge stripes... A+ on the Order design (nicer than the WW2 Order of Victor, I think), but the ribbon... too fussy for my taste. Think how this would have been improved on a strong, symettrical ribbon like the Order of Lenin.

    BTW, I've never SEEN an "L" edition Orders Book before, jumping.gif so that's one to add to my list. What year was it printed? (bottom of last page, tiny letters). I've just gone back to the Orders Books type thread to start adding your new find in there! beer.gif

    Nothing on the inside back cover, the very last page with anything printed?

    Absolutely nothing, nowhere. I have two other books (1940 in the very rear and 1945 bottom of last page). But nothing here.

    Where is this booklet thread?
