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.

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.

Thanks Chris is there any stamping or details at all on the paper ??

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.
