Hmmm... note the similarity of this ribbon with that of the Distinción "Por la Cultura Nacional" which seems to have the additional white stripe used to make "second classes" of many awards.
While not CALLED 1st and 2nd Classes, these would seem functionally to have been related that way, perhaps? |

Re: Medalla ""
Alejo Carpentier y Valmont (December 26, 1904 – April 24, 1980) was a Cuban novelist, essay writer, and musicologist who greatly influenced Latin American literature during its famous "boom" period. He was among the first practitioners of magical realism and exerted a decisive influence on the works of younger Latin American writers.
