"Russian Imperial Orders of Chivalry from the Collection
of the State History Museum"., S. Levin C. 2003, Moscow.
Hard cover with dust jacket, 159 pp. In Russian with brief
translation of the captions under photos and illustrations.
Beautifully illustrated publication, with extremely fine
close-up photos.
Some of the Imperial decorations presented in the book are
among the rarest. Many are attributed to the original
owner, and all have very detailed description with precise
size, weight, hallmarks etc. - something not to be found in
any other reference book. Another first is extremely
detailed explanation of regulations concerning Imperial
orders - down to amount that the recipient had to donate to
the coffer of the Order after the decoration was bestowed.
Very helpful is a table of correlation between the military,
civilian and court ranks and the advancement in rank that
would follow an award. Lastly, there is an all important
list of hallmarks of all major Russian manufacturers of
decorations, with their brief history.
Spectacular and irreplaceable reference!
