Pins in this style were worn by workers, students and officials around the anniversary. For collectors, the combination of a date, a star and a flag gives a clean example of the period design. The red star was used across the Soviet armed forces and in civilian design, and the flag appears on many commemorative items. Together with the 1917 date, they make this one of the most readable revolution pins. It suits a collector who wants a clear example of the standard symbols without a long slogan. Keep it in a dry place so the enamel stays bright.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Soviet Vintage Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67681930444949,"sku":"EBAY-407187376392","price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/0500\/3413\/files\/ussr-great-october-revolution-pin-1917-red-star-1.jpg?v=1791722465","url":"https:\/\/sovietvintagestore.com\/products\/ussr-great-october-revolution-pin-1917-red-star","provider":"Soviet Vintage Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
