Great Celluloid Award Bar

[SovPha]

Hello, everybody!

I was able to save this bar. The person who sold me the bar was the same person who melted the Lenin, Red Banner, Medal "For Distinction in Guarding...", and the Medal "For Battle Merit". I felt a huge pain in my chest after knowing what happened to the awards.

Currently, I am trying to find out who the owner is. This is how greed is destroying history.

1. Order of Lenin,
2. Order of the Red Banner
3. Medal "For Battle Merit"
4. Medal "For Distinction in Guarding the State Border of the USSR"
5. Medal "For the Victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War 1941–1945"
6. Medal "For the Victory over Japan"
7. Jubilee Medal "30 Years of the Soviet Army and Navy"
8. Jubilee Medal "40 Years of the Armed Forces of the USSR"

Agreed!

On a side note, does anybody have a picture of JUST the celluloid pieces that go in these? that is I have some of the medal brackets with no celluloid and you would never want to take one apart to look because they are brittle, but does anybody have a disassembled photo?

Unfortunately, no. Maybe some other members of this forum have photos of just the celluloid pieces.
