    on the reverse. anyone know who it is?

    thanks, rick!

    Huh! The only one I've got is hallmaked silver, with a locking pin catch and separate Xs device:

    Scans from 2002 so from old Epson, but what I have on hand at this moment.

    How rare are these? They're very beautiful.

    I must to my shame admit I had never seen any of these before this thread, and I have looked at many tables at many shows.

    Veeery interesting!

    Over the weekend I looked through many sites and came across one; I scooped it up. These are very nice and I'm going to be on the lookout for them from now on. : )

    Why were they made? Was this something for post war to wear in civilian clothes or was this a wartime thing?

    These are hard to find. If you look hard you will find a couple a year. I feel they were for civilian attire. I can't remember seeing one in a photo but it would be hard due to the size.

    Here's a couple of photos of the only three enamel ribbon bars I've come across in the last three years; they are scarce indeed.
