Some info about the latest book on Romanian awards, Eugen Calianu - Decoratiile romanesti de la Cuza-Voda la Regele Mihai I, Ed. Eminescu, ISBN 973-22-1020-6.

The book has 74 pages of text and 38 pages of illustrations at the end. The quality of the photos is extremely poor, worse than the old Bedivan book. Every award has a short description, only a few details are added compared to older books.

It includes a price guide in euros, which is the first attempt of this kind. However, some prices are innacurate in my opinion.

The official price of this book was 18 RON but i don't think it even made it to the bookstores. It was acquired by speculants, who sell it at high prices on various auction sites.

In my opinion, it's a nice book to buy if you find it at a decent price. But don't pay too much for it, it's not worth it.

The book is already on eBay, selling for 39.99 USD!

It was offered at such prices from the start. At a bookstore, they didn't even had the time to offer it for sale, the publising house withdrew all the books the next day after delivery. I wonder who got those books.

I wrote them a mail and after 2 weeks I have recived the book....in Germany!
My sister in law has bought one in Bucharest from the book store(libraria Eminescu). for 19 RON !


The substance from this book is OK but the pictures are all low quality and copied from the other books(Decoratii romanesti de razboi,Decoratii romanesti, Klietmann, Romanian enciclopedy from '38 )
The author tries to give also a price estimation wich is not correct in the most of the cases !
