Most all of these were obtained in the early 90's along with the bulk of my collection. I was at that time interested in geting as many Red Star Orders as I could for a bulk price. Between my Dad and I we would buy them 10 to 15 at a time from our source. The per item price ranged from $7.00 to $10.00 each. Later we bought some lower numbered pieces. But those have since been sold. I will have to check my current stars to find out what my lowest number is. My Dad has since given his collection to me :) so my collection of Soviet items has at least doubled.
What a nice Dad I have!!!
This is my Red Star Order with the lowest serial number.
