They represent NSDAP long service medals.........

Sure :
1939 EKII, - NSDAP 15 Year LS Cross, - NSDAP 10 Year LS Cross,
- Anschluss ( 1 Marz 1938 ), - Entry into Czechoslovakia
Medal ( 1 Okt 1938 ), - Romanian medal 'For The
Crusade Against Bolshevism'.
Interesting bar. I don't know if all these ribbons
were originally together or not.........

Looks like EK II (Iron Cross 2nd class) in the first position, two party service badges, entry into Austria, entry into Sudetenland and Rumanian anti-communist service. The Sudeten ribbon also has the Prague Castle bar for those who participated in the entry of Bohemia and Moravia. Please others, chime in if I am incorrect. NH
Nice work Steve! You beat me to it. I too wonder if this is a properly set up ribbon bar. Would two long service ribbons be represented? Wouldn't one ribbon supersede the other? NH
I believe that these were to be worn together, the same
fashion as the armed services long service awards.
My worry is that they are political and the EKII
is a combat award.........

Good point. Seems more likely a political figure would receive a war merit ribbon. NH
A ribbon bar representing a member of the military who also was a member of the NSDAP. The order of the awards is correct. Mixture of military and political awards is not unusual.
