Badge "Ready For Labour And Defence Of The U.S.S.R.".

Here's another one similar to the two that started this thread but pinback, not screwback.
I can't tell from the feel if it's brass or an alloy similar but it's got the usual nice, real enamel to it. I get a late 60s/early 70s vibe from it.

It sure looks like brass and I think you are correct about the time period.:thumbsup

Looks like 3367.b on page 639 in Avers 8. That would make it a '46-61 version.

Here is a 1949 pattern document for the 2nd class badge.

The first GTO badges (1936) with the document

An excellent documented badge! Something I've been after for a while but always slips through my fingers. Is it just me or does the document say 1935?

The document says 1935, I made a mistake saying 1936 :D

Nice badges - I have lusted over these for a while :thumbsup

The numbers on the tightening nut and the badges don't appear to match. Should they?
