Bulgaria Order of Labour Glory

[christerd]

I thought I would contionue with the last of the Labour Orders

The Order of Labour Glory, instituted 28th May 1974 in three classes : Bronce , Silver and Gold

Awarding with the higher class was possible only for holders of the lower one.

A total of 6557 Order of Labour Glory (incl all three classes was awarded.)

Here is the front of the lowest class , Bronce

And back of Bronce Class

I havent seen any certificate yet to one of theese and the boxes seems to be hard to find to ?

The only box I have been able to find is for third class....

And here is the Silver class for a even more glorious worker, on his/hers way to the full group !

And the backside

I wonder how many who manage to get all three ?? in 17 years only 6557 pieces was awarded, how many Gold class ???

Would I like to get a complete group with docs ?

YES !

I have tried scanning this Order and the colors don't come out even close (even on my magic Epson, which has "issues" with bright metallic surfaces). It is a BEAUTIFUL award-- the bent solid blocks are shiny and sparkle in any light from being at so many different angles.

It is another superb, modern design, and even in whatever base metal alloy these are made from, they look fantastic. :cheers:

And the last one for the real heores !!!

The Gold class , phuu that would have been hard to get I think.

A really nice piece

And the backside (I am damaged by collecting Imperial German stuff, always look for the backs)

And last pic for the Labour Orders , the Box for a Class III , Bronce order

Haven?t got a clue why the other boxes are so hard to find? Possible the Silver and Gold wasn?t awarded until the Red plastic boxes

was introduced so no boxes was made for them.... njaaae
