Translation from Bulgarian to English please

[Gordon Craig]

Gentlemen,

 

Would someone be kind enough to translate what it says on this certificate into English for me.  I would like to know what medal it would have been issued with.

 

Regards,

Not much help, because according to Google Translate it says "People's Republic of Bulgaria" and "Medal booklet"...

[Dave Danner]

If it's the same as Soviet practice, these little books listed all your awards.

[Graf]

Yes

It was same as the Soviet Union practice.three were booklets that listed all awards

All awards, especially the high ones, came with individual Award book/booklet in two sizes

Big for the for the Stars of Hero of People's Republic of Bulgaria and Hero of Socialist Labour of People's Republic of Bulgaria Sometimes The second one was presented with a small booklet

Gentlemen,

 

Thanks for all of the responses.  If I understand what has been said above, small booklets presented with awards were not named on the cover but appeared to be named on the interior.  Here is a picture of the interior of the booklet I posted above.  Can you tell from what it says inside what award it would have been issued with.

 

Regards,

 

Gordon

Hi Gordon,

 

Thank you for the post

We need the next pages for the list of the awards

On those two pages we have:

on the left - from top to bottom it says place for a picture and then a stamp stating "Valid without picture" and round stamp with ltext "People's' Republic of Bulgaria ..and in the brackets on the very bottom text says  "Signature" but not signed by the awarded person

on the right page is the name of the awarded person Ivan Georgiev Shmugarski

Usually those not signed and without picture booklets are for low level awards

 

Here is a Booklet for Captain who received Fourth Class Second Grade Order for Bravery during WW2

However the practice for list of the awards on the next pages of the booklets (the picture on the right) remained the same after WW2

Hi Gordon,

 

I looked at the eMedals sale

They provide information that does not appear on the page provided

They need to provide picture of the next page as those listed bellow

If you consider buying this medal you have to request picture of the next page with the name of the award and the dates and the number if eMedals include the Number and the Date they need to list picture of this page if they do not have this page the booklet could be from any other award and might not mach with the award for sale

[Gordon Craig]

Gentlemen,

 

Thanks again for your responses.  Asking emedals for photos has never been a success for me.  However, I will try again.  One can always live in hope.

 

Regards,

 

Gordon

I had my experience with eMedals. Not the best I can say.

Hi Gordon,

 

Did you have any luck with this medal
