Komsomol Membership Badge.

[Chris]

Here are two Komsomol Id's from 39 and 56...just love the addition of awards given during the war to the booklets.

Inside.....just amazing to think what was going on in Russia during this period.

What is this

I bought this document with other medal documents.
Is there someone who recognises this, and can say what it is

Thanks

This is a Komsomol (like a junior communist league) member booklet issued in 1941 if I see the date at the bottom of the 1st page correctly.

Tal,

this design was used from 1945 to 1958.
The badge on your second picture was used from 1958 to 1991.

and I think from 1924 to 1945 they used the badge with the inscription KIM.

Never saw one of these badges KIM.
