Deruelle Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 And now the close up of the medal bar. Note that he wore some Finish medals (neck and under the big medal bar) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Finnish Order of the White Rose-Commander, and at the end of his upper medal bar, Finnish Order of the Cross of Liberty 2nd Class 1918 Military type (so rare we never discuss numbers so lazy dealers won't charge us more with our own knowledge ).the lower little medal bar looks like the Bavarian "Christmas 1918" Medal on military Jubilee Medal ribbon given to Royalists in the 1920s, unknown, and Finnish War of Independence Medal 1918.He was born in 1874, so I think this photo must have been taken in the 1950s-- he is very VERY old looking!!!!!
