Temporary badge storage

I did this quickly, just to get them out of the pile on my desk before, who knows, the cat might decide to eat one.

They are very rare and more difficult to find that the badges.
I have 1st (1935) and 3rd (1944) Lanes. I never seen (may be don't exist ) the 2nd.

Beautiful Kaganovich Metro badges (especially with documents, a very rare find). Thank You for the pictures.

Yugoslavian awards and whatnot

Just put this together today after getting a Labor3 yesterday to complete my current collection.
I tell ya what; those cap stars are really nice. Much nicer than those from Soviet Russia.
Please pardon the fingerprints; the maid won't be here for a few days yet.

edit: added what I think might be a better shot, and also an image of part of the director during a pre-shoot inspection.
