Hi Bagration,

Please, from which book is coming this picture ?

Many thanks.

Cheers.

I think that's from the Airapetyan book 'Breast Badges of the Red Army 1941-45'. Good book! Igor sells 'em. (got mine on CDR)

Hi Eric,

Thanks for the tip. How can I be so stupid... I HAVE this book. It is on page 69, and page 70 shows some transitional badges, with "Rossia"... ;)

Thanks again.

Cheers.

G'day Paul,

Thanks for the 'happy snaps' of the СНТ Guards Badge. Have you purchased this badge? If you don't want it I would like to buy it......any chance? Thanks, again, for the great photos.

Best regards,

Jim

Wow, I didn't know that was real. :)
Very nice, I like it.

WW2 Guardian badges in my collection (last one is early postwar)

Also WW2 Guardian badges I have for swap (## 8 and 9 are early and latest postwar).

Nice badges!

Strange one that #9!

[Komandir RKKA]

Very late one, made of light metall and really looks strange and funny.

[Nota Bene]

Yet perfectly genuine, either "Pobeda" or "FSZ" production.
