What do you make of it?

Stuff like that is fascinating

 

This is the first thing I thought of, but then all the ration coupons don't make sense: Factory Throwouts Cigars | Cigars Rolled in America | J.C. Newman Cigars

 

It's time like this that I wish my grandfather was still here. He would know what this is and a interesting piece of history that went with it.

 

That’s cool!

 

My first thought was ration stamps die to the dates but fed 41 was before the war started , but maybe its what they used for poker chips ?

 

sorry, but I just had to.......
@Sirscrapntruckalot ,beat you to it......hahahaha
Airplane The Movie - A Hat, A Broach, A Pterodactyl - YouTube

 

That’s my all time favorite comedy movie , ever .
And stop calling me Shirley !


And correctly predicted the future , in the scene where the old lady gets strip searched while in the background the Arabs are carrying bazokas through the airport .

 

A few things, the box is cut in half and was a bulk cigar box for cheap cigars from the 30's.

Second those are not ration stamps or rationing coupons, but I'm wondering what he actually did on the rail road.

What did the other cards have on them?

It could be he handed them out to people for food like soup.

 

No idea what it is but very cool all the same .
