That is a sharp design. Awesome that it was soldier free mail usage during WWII.

Nice find. I wonder if they were sold in packs like the air letter sheets.

I believe that this card you bought falls under the category of "V" Mail and is very collectible for specialists.

Others refer to it as "V" For Victory Mail but it is the same thing.

You might want to go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-mail
and http://www.skylighters.org/encyclopedia/vmail.html

There are some nice varieties in there.
