Re: The History Of Suspension?
Comrades,
Back on (toward) topic, there is the question as to when (and why) Tsarist Russian adopted what we think of as the peculiar Soviet/Russian style of medal suspension. I know this is a Tsarist question, something which (happily) this forum does not focus upon, but I think it is relevant here. Clearly, before the Great War this style had been adopted. When? By what process of evolution? Curious minds really want to know. Two bits of eye candy: The first lives with me (and has been posted elsewhere on the forum), the second does not, as the admission ticket was FAR too rich for my blood (as the recipient most probably served on the Князь Потёмкин Таврический). (Though, clearly, the suspension on the second is "diddled".) Last edited by medals73; 01-08-2012 at 08:02 PM. |
