Bulgaria Finial

[Hauptmann]

Hi all,

I originally thought this was a Soviet finial but it seems that was incorrect. Seems it's a Bulgarian finial so figured I'd post it over here.

Any additional info would be deeply appreciated.

We had ones like that at school!

You can see these in several sizes, flag finals of that type were used everywhere - schools, party related stuff, factories, army.... anywhere the red flag was flown /and it was flown everywhere /

An example similar to yours, used by the Border Troops:

Hi Theodor,

Many thanks for the additional info as well as that great picture! It definitely confirms what I'd learned... funny enough on Ebay!

For the longest time I'd thought it was a slightly fancier Soviet one but good to be able to ID it properly and put it where it belongs.
