Both of the ribbons appear to be okay to me.
I can only suggest that one of the ribbons was originally intended to be used for a ribbon bar, or a parade mount like this one.

Thank you for the reply! I am glad that you also believe the ribbons appear to be original pre-1945. The colors on these seem to vary quite a bit.
I think you are probably right about the original purpose of the 25mm ribbon. I remember seeing a few medals with 25mm ribbons used in place of 30mm ribbons when we kids would dig them out and look at them, but it was uncommon. My guess is that many decorations made their way to the US with whatever ribbon was at hand in 1945 and 1946.
Best regards,
