This item is marked "An American-Spanish War Envelope" by someone that held onto it.

If you count the stars, there were only 44 States in Teddy Roosevelt's day that made for
a rather awkward flag configuration.

Fwiw, we ALL have a relic of the Spanish-American War!
There is a tax on your telephone bills that was installed
temporarily to pay for the S-A War. Just that Congress
forgot to take it off when the war was over! Been there
since 1897!

Just goes to show that once you create a tax, even short
term, it never goes away.

No wonder their approval rating is less than half that
of POTIS. And we all know how horrible his rating is.
