    Description

    These Gas Ration Cards are from World War II.
    The amount of gasoline you received during World War II depended on whether your job was essential to the war effort. Drivers received a windshield sticker and ration coupons for gasoline. An "A" sticker allowed the driver 3 or 4 gallons a week. This book of stamps or coupons help the driver keep track of rationed fuel. You can see on the card these belonged to Myrtle Flickinger and she was from Kankakee IL.
