Re: Order Of Labour.

"CathhR": Can you show a type 1, type 2, and a type 3 side-by-side so we have a visual comparison to work with. Thanks in advance.

Well, if you are willing to pay 10 GBP for it, I think it is available, at least last time I checked. :)

Yeah, Bulgarian stuff is still really cheap. Good stuff, though.

Believe it or not I only have 14 of these. It would have to an accompanying document to someone very internationally respected to have a value of anywhere near $10.

If you pay more than $3 you are only hurting your wallet, they can usually be picked up for under $1.

Of the 14 I have, some did cost less than 15p. When you have one in your hands you'll realise why.

Here's the evolution from a very Bulgarian award to a rather sterile Soviet one.

The National Order Of Labour and Order Of Labour are not the same award but more "father and son".

(Only 31 National Orders Of Labour in the collection too.)
The National Order Of Labour was an imperial award whereas the Order Of Labour comes from Zhivkov's Bulgaria at a time when becoming a SSR was seen as a viable option.
