Stamps and censored envelopes from the Far Eastern war zones are the subject of the Harvard University Stamp Club's annual exhibit in the Widener Library.
The course of censorship, as it followed the outbreak of hostilities, is traced through displays of entire envelopes or "covers" representing by their stamps, their censorship markings, their patriotic stickers, and their cancellations.
