Wild Card Posted July 21, 2011 Posted July 21, 2011 :speechless1: Incredible! Any chance of an identification?
Pobeda45 Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 (edited) A tremendous photo. According to the fellows on Sammler, it's Barinov Aleksanr Ivanovich. http://www.hrono.ru/..._b/barinov.html A true survivor! George Edited July 25, 2011 by Pobeda45
Paul R Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Is there anything on the back of the photo? What are the two awards on the wearer's left?
Wild Card Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Is there anything on the back of the photo? What are the two awards on the wearer's left? That is the question. The one to the wearer's far left is quite definitely The Order of the Red Star of The Soviet Republic of Buchara. The other one may be the same or, possibly but unlikely, a star to the Order of Noble Buchara. A closer picture might be helpful.
Wild Card Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Zeroing in and magnifying the two Buchara orders as best as I can, it appears, to me at least, that the two orders are virtually identical except that the center medallion of the one on the left is mounted upside down!
