Inscribed: Recto: "Going Ashore? Be careful to whom you talk and what you say. On no account discuss the movement of ships, crews or cargoes. You are in a position of trust. The safety of men's lives -- perhaps your own -- may depend on how well you can keep what you know to yourself" This message repeats four times in Greek, Dutch, Norwegian, and French. "Printed for H.M. Stationary Office by Fosh & Cross Ltd., London (51-8591)" Verso: at top right, in graphite: "Mrs. Nelson Gutman" "9 misc. papers" in graphite penicil in u.r. "BRITISH LIBRARY OF INFORMATION, 620 - 5TH AVENUE, NEW YORK" in rubber stamp in l.l.
