Pilot-Cosmonaut Of The People's Republic Of Bulgaria.
Gentlemen,
This has been great discussion for a rare badge. Just to shift the focus a bit - here's real beauty for your review and the rarest of the rare - Cosmonaut Badge from Communist Bulgaria. Bulgaria is a small country and did not have as many cosmonauts as Soviet Union had. This badge was awarded only 2 (two) times!!!!!!!! More info on Bulgarian Cosmonaut badge: Instituted: On 26th January 1979 by decree of the State Council of National Republic of Bulgaria. Given to: Bulgarian citizens for cosmic flights. Official name: Aviator - Astronaut of National Republic of Bulgaria. Form: The badge of the title has round shape with sizes: 32 to 38 mm. It is made of gold and silver. Averse: in a frame of five angular star are imaged the earth globe and a spaceship. Laurels wigs surround the star. Above is a strip with the inscription: "PILOT -ASTRONAUT OF THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF BULGARIA". Reverse: plain. The badge of the title is worn over the left breast and it is carried on a metal bar decorated with the colors of the National flag and the Bulgarian crest. Author: Raytcho Peev Awarded: 2 astronauts - George Ivanov and Alexander Alexandrov. Emission closed: 1990 |
