Foreign medals on TR era ribbon bars

[TabsTabs1964]

Hello everyone.

I never manage to find time to show my collection of German TR era ribbon bars.

Today, thanks to a question that my friend Aldo asked about an alleged SS ribbon bar, the topic of the place of foreign medal ribbons in German ribbon bars of this period came up.

So I chose a few of my collection with decorations from other countries (Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Finland and Croatia) I took a couple of quick photos, I have numbered them and finally I have decided to upload them in this section of the forum.

The first two obviously only contain German medal ribbons, but they resemble the second ribbon bar that Aldo uploaded and serve to focus the question.

I hope you enjoy them
Cheers
Santi
