Gentlemen
Recently I purchased big group of documents of Marshal Bazhanov. I would like to add to this group his Certificate for the Marshal Star, which is still for sale (5 years). But… the Certificate is for sale ONLY with 2 Marshal of Artillery Tunics. I don’t collect uniforms and don’t need the tunics (even it would be nice to have them with the documents and awards).
I have an idea.:idea What if somebody, who collects Uniforms and is interested in 2 Marshal Bazhanov’s Tunics, would like to split the cost of the group. I need only the Certificate.
Please PM me with propositions and to discuss possible purchase.
Here is the description of the group and some pictures:
• Large Leather Certificate for the Marshal Star!!!
• 2 Marshal of Artillety Tunics, one with Orders and Medals, one with their respective ribbon bars.
• 2 High quality copies of Order of Kutuzov I class.
• High quality copy of Order of Suvorov II class.
• High quality copy of Order of Kutuzov II class.
• 2 copies of Order of Lenin.
• 3 Real Orders of Red Banner, all excellent.
• 2 Real Orders of Red Star, both with some enamel repairs.
• All medals and badges on the uniform are authentic, as well.
• Citation "Gramota" from 1930's.
• Early personal photo, wearing all decorations and sword.
• 2 other photos, including the photo of a memorial marble plate on the building, where marshal lived.
• Copy of his biography from Soviet Big Military Encyclopedia, vol.1, p.360 (includes photo in uniform with full regalia).
Note to avoid a misconception! This uniform has been very carefully decorated with substituted decorations to reconstruct impressive run of awards of the prominent Marshal and for display purpose. Except for the 2 Tunics and a Certificate for the Marshal Star (3 items holding 100% of the value of this group), all other items are not original to Bazhanov, but rather real orders or copies. All substituted material, real or not, is a BONUS and comes as such (free of charge!!!)
Thanks
Eric
