US ones don't look like that at all. They were color coded for the different products. And children's ration coupons were different from adult coupons! I was astonished when going through my mother's belongings in a dusty old box retrieved from her attic that she had saved loads of paper and documents and other souvenirs dating all the way back to her childhood in the late 1920s. Among them we found loads of used ration coupon booklets for gas, milk, dairy products. One of the coupons is still attached to the book!J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.com
