72psb Posted October 9, 2013 Share #26 Posted October 9, 2013 Carl...it's years since I picked up that Army stationary set, I probably paid peanuts for it! I assume this kind of ephemera is still relatively inexpensive? Ian, A little bit of stationary coming your way with that other item. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris3bs Posted October 11, 2013 Share #35 Posted October 11, 2013 These envelopes looks like they were never used from 70 years ago.. I have seen them used in POW letters and these were from a bombardier grouping whom was a POW in one of the Stalag camps during WW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris3bs Posted October 11, 2013 Share #37 Posted October 11, 2013 Thanks Chris is there any stamping or details at all on the paper ?? LB That is pretty much it. No markings that I can find. I guess soldier was lucky enough to be able to write from prison. I have seen a Stalag letter written home which included these envelopes.

BEAST Posted October 23, 2013 Share #45 Posted October 23, 2013 Great contributions! Although not USAAF, this piece is aviation related. It was used by a flight surgeon aboard the USS Independance.
