1919, June 13. Envelope featuring corner card illustration including the British flag and the Canadian leaf ´´Canada/C.A.H.´´ also with ´´Canadian Siberian Expedition´´ endorsement which has been crossed out (the Canadian forces had been evacuated on 3 June), sent by an American nurse with ´´Nurses Mail´´ in manuscript at top right, with American Expeditionary Forces in Siberia duplex (1) and censorship, the latter with the signature of Katherine C. Hannan (chief nurse in Siberia). A very rare illustrated envelope, very probably unique used by the A.E.F. in Siberia, representing, in one item, the combination of forces of three countries.
