Alan Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Hi Gents, I picked up this ribbon with a small lot and I was wondering if anyone knows which order it may belong to? Width 25mm Length 1000mm Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuka f Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 To me it belongs to a carnival order. I have to leave now, but I'll try to find a example later on today or tomorrow. cheers |<ris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul C Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I don't recognize it. Perhaps something from Saxony because of the green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishGunner Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Do you have any particular reason to believe it's military? What else was in the lot? Is it silk? Black light test? Carnival order is a possibility. As is some "unofficial" sports award. I've seen the same color combination (except in 22mm width) for sale on a UK trophy vendor's site.

P.F. Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 (edited) Hi Alan, This ribbon is possibly for a post-war Austrian veteran medal. Here are some examples on this one ribbon bar I have. Kind regards Pierce Edited November 15, 2014 by P.F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the same thought Paul. It did come with a small lot of Sachsen items, but I could not find a match with the usual award ribbon references.

Chris Boonzaier Posted November 18, 2014 Share Posted November 18, 2014 this kind of thing could also be used for student association bands, or watch fobs in student assoc colors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
