Rationing Reminders Urge Destruction of Invalid Stamps
The Office of Price Administration urges housewives to destroy invalid food ration stamps and notes that misuse by consumers or retailers is a violation. Red tokens remain usable for meats and fats while blue tokens are no longer valid for canned goods. Several stamps are specifically declared invalid or good again with dates and changes. Expiration dates are not yet set for stamps remaining valid. Gasoline A-14 coupons and shoes stamps in book three are noted as valid indefinitely.
