Measures 8 ¼" x 6", paperback, 54 pp. Published by "Accent" Publishing House, printed on high-grade semi-gloss coated paper in partnership with "Europrint" business group.
Russian text, over 300 of numbered color illustrations with descriptions displaying hat badges in use by military and paramilitary ministries and departments throughout the history of the Soviet Union, - from Red Army to all branches of the Soviet armed forces and NKVD/KGB to railroads, sea and river merchant fleets, firefighters, forestry, coal mining industry, etc., etc. There was hardly a sphere of economy which the Communist government did not militarize at least to some level.
This is the first and only such reference book on this topic, and will be of immense help in identifying the type and period of Soviet headgear, and we offer a single copy in very good to excellent condition. This book is rather scarce.
In excellent condition. Very minor shelf wear to the cover. The internal pages are in mint condition, no detriment of any kind.
