Badges of this kind were worn at events and on jackets. They are inexpensive to collect and easy to compare against the 1967 and 1977 issues. Because 1987 fell in the period of glasnost and perestroika, the jubilee carried particular weight in public life. This pin is part of that moment. It can be displayed together with pins for 1967 and 1977, so the collector sees how the style of the badges changed from one anniversary to the next. Keep it dry and out of direct sun.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soviet Vintage Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67681930051733,"sku":"EBAY-407187366977","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/0500\/3413\/files\/soviet-70th-anniversary-october-revolution-pin-1.jpg?v=1791722442","url":"https:\/\/sovietvintagestore.com\/products\/soviet-70th-anniversary-october-revolution-pin","provider":"Soviet Vintage Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
