A Cellar of Fine Vintages / WWII Decks?
« on: February 20, 2019, 11:08:00 AM »
I'm thinking of starting a collection of decks that soldiers would have had during WWII. I have my grandfather's airplane spotter deck that he carried with in northern Africa and Italy during the war, but I was just wondering what other decks would have been given by the Red Cross (obviously the red tuck box "Red Cross" gift deck), or sold at the base PX stores. I've found a number of them that have the "for use of us govt" stamped on them with WWII dates, and then some others that are just claimed to be WWII decks but are definitely from the time, with the war bond cards included etc... Let me know if there are any others I should add to this visual checklist (not my decks, pics found on internet)
