Badge for Excellence in the Narkomat of Chemistry - late 1930s

I haven't been around in a long time. This is a piece I picked up during my travels. Similar to Avers 8, item 622.a. but mine is in the original box.

Blind squirrel and acorn, I'm afraid. But I love this piece. I intend to sell it as I am getting rid of most of my collections and just concentrating on one or two areas of particular interest to me. In the rare times when I do acquire new things, they are mostly from the People's Republic of Georgia, 1918-1922. Very small niche but exciting when I do find new things, which I stil do. I have a small pile still to share here. I know most people have never heard of this topic but that's okay. I have a mentor in Tbilisi and we collect together.
