Bulgaria Tooting My Own New Horn

[Guest Rick Research]

Very attractive, very obscure-- even Evil Ricky has not got one of these.

100th Anniversary of Bulgarian Post, 1979:

Uh, it WOULD help if I posted the scan, huh? Sorry folks-- technical issues the last couple of days.

A very atrractive medal, yes?

[Stogieman]

And actually rather hard to find.... nice example

[Theodor]

I still donot see a picture :blush:

Theese medals are quite hard to find , if the information is right that I have only 1000 was made.

And the documents is even harder to come by, I have one doc and that is the only one I´ve seen.

I wonder who got theese medals ?

Hope the pic will show now...

Regards Christer

And I simply thought it was even prettier than most Bulgarian medals!

What on earth is the design in the stamp on the document supposed to be?

[Theodor]

Ministry of communications, I believe the stamp is similar to the Horn under the name on the document. Probably without the lion though? Can't see it clear, but looks like a horn with a small star over it?

And the interior of the document pair:

In looking at the two examples we now have of this document, we see the same seal/signature stamp... but what a difference between one being filled out by hand in beautiful script and the other being typed!

[christerd]

Nice !

I love your hand signed one , wish I could write like that

Still wonder what kind of people who got theese?

[Stogieman]

Found another, same script handwriting! Can anyone decipher the name?

[Theodor]

Nikolina Lazarova Kovacheva from Sofia :cheers:

[Stogieman]

Maybe all the ones from Sophia were filled out by the same person, my other script one is Sophia too!

[Theodor]

Yes, I am sure it is the same! Same writing and both from May 1979. Someone got busy for a while filling such documents :cheers:
