Norwegian Relief Seals and Letter: 1941
Scope and Contents
This material consists of a 1941 Norwegian Relief letter and 100 Norwegian Relief Seals. The seals were sold by Norwegian Relief, Inc. to assist Norway during the Nazi Occupation. The letter requests that the seals be used on Christmas cards, and that one dollar be donated for every 100 seals used. The seals are the Norwegian colors, red and blue. Their flag is in the background with “Help Norway” across the top and a young Norwegian girl in the center. The bottom of the seal states Norwegian Relief. This material was donated by Char Brekke of Brekke Tours & Travel, Grand Forks, in Fall, 2009 (Acc. #2010-3059).
