Ribbon bars for review

[Oscar]

Hello all,

Please opinion on these ribbon bars below.

Please take a look on third ribbon bar with Social Service award: Heer/Wss combat soldier (awarded ek2) and German Social Service award together? Is it common or rare combination?

I welcome any views, thank You.

Oscar,

These are all original bars. The 6-er bar is a little out of order (the Eastern Front ribbon should be before the long service medals) but we sometimes see this with period pieces.

The 4-er bar you make reference to- the last ribbon is not German. It is for the Croatian King Zvonimir Order/Medal. The wreath device tells us this. It is not "rare" to see this but certainly uncommon.

Kind regards
Pierce

First time I've ever seen a bar with a 'vertical' prong setup like that... Is that WWII-period made? (not saying it isn't, but want to learn)

Thank You Pierce for Your opinion

Are we talking about last one ribbon bar? We can see this setup from time to time, here is similar example below and other "naked" examples.

No, this one... first time I've ever seen one with this type construction
