Mandy Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 This is a single one which isn't from Bohemia. I found it in a small post office in Sant-Peterburg a long time ago. The post masters had a glue for postage stamps in it and I exchanged it for a tin of fish. The ration was made for Red Army in the U.S.A.
