This is a nice reference work on almost any badge, medal or znachok ever associated with the MVD -- both USSR and Russian Federation. Includes a section on all the basic medals/orders of the USSR with some of the important cavaliers of the MVD, as well as a host of badges -- official and semi-official.

The book has arrived along with a few others on badges. This MVD book lists hundreds of badges. Very comprehensive. Over 500 pages.

While I was in Moscow last summer, I became aware of the fact that the MVD has seemingly switched its name to "FSB" - something that seems to have happened since 2002. As a result, very recent security service insignia are not shown in this book. Since most forum members are probably specializing in soviet era material, though, this should not be a problem for them...
The book is an excellent reference and I'm glad that I own a copy. As alluded to earlier in this thread, one of the nicer aspects of this book is that it covers virtually any award from any quarter that a MVD man was liable to earn and wear. It even covers many of items that German collectors would call "Tinnies"! Jim |
