V-Mail (Feb 1943): The image depicts “V-mail” which is being “inspected for flaws on an enlarging ‘reader’ at the Pentagon building, Washington, D.C. V-mail is available to and from the armed forces stationed outside the United States. It is only 1/65th the weight of ordinary mail and saves ninety-eight percent of the cargo space required for ordinary letters. 1,600 letters can be placed on a roll of film little larger than a pack of cigarettes.”
The newsletter is low traffic - about 4-5 eMails a year.
