Socialist Yugoslavia Ribbon Summary - Presentation/Display Sheet

[oamotme]

Gentlemen,

 

Whilst looking for something else I came across this display sheet of Yugoslav ribbons and devices.

Other than what you can see there is no other script or attribution.

It appears official and I wonder if it was some manner of government or military display / promotional piece.

There is a slight fold which, if I recall correctly was how it came to me.

 

Regards,

Hello Owain,

 

Yes, it's a display of ribbons from the SFRY ranked in order of importance. These were mainly hanging in tailor shops and factories to guide tailors in the correct order of presentation of sewn ribbons on uniforms.

 

What is a small oddity here is that the small devices on the order of republic ribbons are the coat of arms from the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (1992-2003), where the revised orders were introduced in 1998, while everything else is consistent with the pre-1991 regulations.

Drugo,

Many thanks - I now know what the display was for. 

It is a well presented souvenir of a past era.
