Hello, gang.
I'm back again. I'm sitting here at home, snowed-in, nothing to do but
feed the birds outside. I got to digging around and found a nice framed
shadowbox. I thought it would be perfect for a single piece such as the
Order of Alexander Nevsky or any other upper-end piece. This frame has
all the bases covered for the screwposts on the Soviet awards. There is
at least a full 1/2" of room from the glass to the base where the award
would be attached. Behind this mounting wall there is another 1/2" of
free space. It's ideal. I find these frames at craft shops and at stores
like Walmart or Target. They're pretty generic. Some are actually
constructed of nice hardwood. Here are some pictures:
Respects.

That's my Newyears resolution, to quit at twelve Red Stars and three or four of every campaign medal..and invest in a nice upper end piece. When I get it framed I'll post it in the frame for you. Hey, I sent you an e-mail.
