Gentlemen,

These were given with brass variation of the Badge for the 25th Anniversary of Victory. The one on the left is actually dark green.

Tal,

Theese are the only variations I am aware of, not counting soft- and hardcover variations of the first one. The Militia variation is quite hard to find.

I own two of these issued by the KGB. One of them was a one off item. The second is part of a large set of docs and IDs I have that were issued to a KGB officer. I think that there are even minor printing variations in the two.

I think I have one of them with me in Bosnia, if so I will scan it and send off an image.

25th anniversary of the GPW badge booklet

Ya don't see these babies too often.
And it's a tiny one, too! about 2.25 x 2.75 inches or 57mm by 72mm folded.

Included is a regular award booklet for scale.

The first entry is for rank (звание). The other three are, of course, his name.

Re: 25th anniversary of the GPW badge booklet

I've got several spare 25th ann. badge docs kicking around the house, mostly in sets of docs. ;)

Oddly, the number of 25th Ann. badges I see in the bazaars has also really dropped off lately. I guess everything is slowing drying up.
