It is a second quick course in history of Soviet Union as reflected in decorations and medals. Contains encyclopaedic amount of historic material, illustrated by color and black and white drawings. 4 periods are covered : * 1917-1920 * 1920-1941 * 1941-1945 * 1945-1990 I bought it 438 RRoubles (14 euros - a very good price :) ) in St Petersburg.

I see that it is of very poor print quality. Is there new information in the book, or is there coverage of rare titles, state prizes etc.?

About the printing quality; it is neither better not worst than most of the Russian made catalogs or books. This book is not printed on a glossy paper, and all the illustrations are drawings... In fact, I don't find it so bad... Maybe my scans don't give him credit...
About the content : it is in Russian; I have not yet gone through all the contents and chapters. But, as far as I have understood and seen, it seems to cover Republican orders in a quite extensive manner. It is lighter about the State prizes. Ch. |
