Bremen money order card
- mailed 1939 with a 1 Koruna magenta colored stamp (Slovenska Posta) and an orange Slovenska Posta 20 Halierov stamp - received with a postmark with what I believe to be George Sabo - New York, NY
- This card references the what I believe to be the Ocean Liner BREMEN - the value of the money order was listed as $20 US which is equivalent to about $449.40 in 2024
The wording on the card (light paper stock) is loosely translated below:
