			<description><![CDATA[Managed to find a couple of intact Romanian flags from the Communist period that I thought I'd post. The first is from the RSR period and shows the final version of the State seal. A small flag, probably 1 1/2 to 2 feet horizontally, made of synthetic silk with fringe. As it is two-ply, the seal is correct reading on both sides. The construction of the flag indicates it was meant for indoor use.<br />
<br />
The second image shows the final version of the State seal, silk screened and typically "out of register" for a mass-produced item.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[As I don't believe this has been covered yet, I thought I'd share a few Romanian ribbon bars. The three I'll show today are military (yes, civilian members of the Communist Party also wore ribbon bars); two are from the RPR period (1947-1965) and the last is from the RSR period (1965-1989).<br />
<br />
First, an RPR "four across", eight ribbon bar. The awards are (left to right, top to bottom):<br />
<br />
Star of Romania, 5th Class<br />
Order of Military Merit, 2nd Class (20 Years)<br />
Order of Labour, 3rd Class<br />
Order of Military Merit, 3rd Class (15 Years)<br />
Liberation from the Fascist Yoke<br />
Medal for Military Merit, Gold (10 Years)<br />
10 Year Anniversary of the Foundation of the Army<br />
20th Anniversary of the Armed Forces<br />
<br />
The back reveals soldered together rows.<br /><!-- start: postbit_attachments_attachment -->

			<description><![CDATA[That is what it seems to be...<br />
It looks just like an "old", but otherwise normal Foto Album, however, It contains a specific pictures. <br />
These are: The highest romanian authorities, Well-known places (architecture and natural) in Romania, Romanian Industry and Romanian Army (during some maoevers) (there are no oficial section names there - these are just "my" titles).<br />
Each picture is acompanied by a caption in romanian.<br />
This makes me think it's some propaganda issue of some sort<br />
All pics are b&amp;w and it shows Gheorghiu-Dej as the First secretary, so it's probably from 50's - early 60's<br />
What exactly is it? A presentation item? <br />
Also, what would be it's value (if any)?<br />
Many thanks in advance.]]></description>
