Scarce Mid-WWII Blood Chit or "Rescue Patch" Made in China by Chinese Aero Commission

This is a scarce mid-World War II blood chit or "rescue patch": hard-to-find in this condition! It was manufactured in China by the Chinese Aero Commission, whose large, stamped chop is near the bottom left of the chit. Near the bottom right is the "May Guo" characters stamped in purple, the phonetic way to say American in Cantonese, which let the reader know that the person possessing the chit was American. It is silk-screened on silk with a fine linen backing. A large red and blue flag bearing the Chinese sun is at the top.

Circa mid-World War II.

Approximately 7-7/8" by 10".

Silk-screened on silk, fine linen backing.

None.

Stamped Chinese Aero Commission chop and stamped "May Guo" characters.

This is from a WWII USAAF blood chit collection that we will be listing more of over the next few months. VAEJX13 LGGEX11/13 SGGEX4/14

8- (Very Fine-Excellent): The chit is in very good condition with some minor overall aging.

As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
