Britain has sent to Russia ... Our Products Fight on Russian Fronts!
Arrows and small drawings list British shipments to the USSR: 3,000 tanks, 3,000 aircraft, 70,000,000 rounds of ammunition, boots, rubber and 831,000 tons of metals and arms, with 85,000 trucks credited jointly with the United States. The card-stacking tell is that only the deliveries are tallied, with no figures for what Britain kept, what the Soviet side supplied or the period covered.
