The article from the poster stamp bulletin October 1944

And their ad from later in the same issue.

A bit confusing since they describe it as a set of 30 in one part of the article but later call it a set of 24 and show it as 24 in the ad.

As near as I can tell, they're the same set.

I don't know Steve. I have been organizing stuff the last several days and am continually finding things I don't know I have. A couple days ago I found a Matty Black cap T206, raw, in probably vg'ish condition. I found this booklet shown at top and this form was inside it. I never had seen it before. As I said, I had to make it difficult. You contribute so much to this board that if you will PM your preference I will throw a shirt your way too. Thanks to everyone who guessed. It was a bit different than our normal ones and I think that is a good thing every now and then.
