Suspensions, Ribbons, Ribbon Bars And Order Of Precedence.

[Pobeda45]

Hiya guys,

I like collecting the 1950s-1970s plexiglass ribbon bars--they solid feeling, and are all different as they were individually / workshop made.

Here are a couple of "War and Peace" ribbon bars--from recipients who both served in the war and were also recognized with awards after the war.

Here's a recipient who served in the war, judging by the VOG ribbon, the 1970 War Vet Ribbon (lower right), and the OPW 1 class ribbon; he was also distinguished with an Order of Red Banner of Labor and an Order of October Revolution. This must have been a pretty senior apparatchik!
