Stogieman Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I love this document with the photo... but looks like an early document and suspension mis-matched to a much later type of Second Class Order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 It's offered very inexpensive... I might just buy it to get the book! I can add a matching award easy enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolgarin Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 If its not a secret what is the price? I think that the owner of this order was a blind man...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted May 14, 2009 Author Share Posted May 14, 2009 Hi Petr, it's being offered for only $40.00 (plus shipping) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stogieman Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 The plot thickens..... now that I have this in-hand what I see is a probably correct transitional award. The Order itself is thin, hot enamels with a stippled back. I have only one other example like this. The other example is mounted on a later aluminum suspension.This new piece looks like it's been together forever: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 Here's where it gets real interesting.... this page from the Order's Book was not shown by the seller.... he received this award in 1969.He also received a 9th September in 1974!

Stogieman Posted June 9, 2009 Author Share Posted June 9, 2009 So.... we have a very early styled Order's Book being used in 1969 & added to in 1974! Now my (Truly) Evil Twin? believes that these were jubilee awards given the years awarded. So, we then must wonder was he a war invalid? A party member? What else did he receive that is out there loose?? I guess we'll never know for sure.In the interim, I will look for a nice cased 9th September to complete the pair...
