Tal,
Its my understanding that each factory or farm or place of employment had one of these books. If you had some outstanding performance in your work, your picture and an explanation of what you had done was placed in the book, and the book would be kept out so people could see who was in the book. You also got a Gramota stating that you were in the book. The blank books are quite common, the Gramotas are fairly common, and the filled in books are extremely rare.
