Join the club: A stamp a day for the man who's away
Long banner with a grinning helmeted soldier at left and a smiling Navy sailor at right, between red stripes and blue stars. 'Join the Club' is a bandwagon appeal to join other buyers, and the two servicemen's portraits stand for 'the man who's away'.
