Wartime Ceiling Prices Statement- on the back, at the bottom, is the 1943 WWII war-time rationing OPA Regulations Statement. OPA was the Office Of Price Administration that issued ration stamps and set maximum pricing allowed for restaurants so that over-inflated high prices would not occur during the war.
