    Some help needed with ribbonbar and lapel bows

    Just got some thing of the E-stand, it was two lots of medals, ribbonbars and lapel bows. The other things are ok to me but here are the ones I dont recognice or just have some doubts about.

    The ribbon bars in the lot are somewhat defect as none of the 3 has any pins on the back. At some point they were glued on to paper of some sort, as there is small pieces of paper on two of the ribbonbars (The ones with paper are not shown on picture).

    I need help to identify the ribbons on the bar shown in the picture below. The second matches a Commemorative medal I have which I belive to be Austrian or Hungarian but with the other two, I havent got a single clue.
    The ribbon to the left is sewn over the grey backing. Can there have been another ribbon before that was replaced?

    I also want to know what the ribbon on the left lapel bow is, and also the upper ribbon on the right lapel bow.

    Then the last thing I need is some help/opinions with/on is this Front Fighter cross. Haven't seen this mounting before and the back makes me confused. Whats with the knot? As You can see, there is no suspension ring so my first thougt was that it might be a later "mix up" of a ribbonbar and a medal without a suspension ring.

    Well, a load of questions but without them, I wont get any answers and knowledge.

    Hi,

    the 1st ribbon on the ribbon bar are unknown to me. 2nd is the Hungaria WW1-commemorative medal, 3rd is the Bulgarian WW1-commemorative medal.

    single lapel bow is 3rd reich era Volkspflege award, kind of a red cross decoration

    double lapel bow has a Hessian bravery medal and the frontfighters cross; odd not the typical swords on the bow.

    The mounting of the cross looks quite homemade.

    Best regards

      Thanks Daniel.

      Only one to go then, I'm sure that someone out there has an answer for the first ribbon on the 3xribbonbar.

      Just noticed that the safetypin on the mounting on the front fighter cross has a "zig-zag" backside, if You know what I mean. Anyway, I don't really care if its homemade or not as its not a unusual or rare piece, I just want to know what I have in my hands. Anyway, it's still a nice little piece.

      Best regards,
      Henrik
