on a letter posted at Maastricht. At the time of going to press we
have noted British military censor marks up to No. 1739. We are also
able to state definitely that _Fig._ 85B (Chapter II.) is a field
postmark of the Indian Expeditionary Force in France.

Transcriber's Notes:
Irregular and duplicate figure numbering has been retained throughout.
The only intentional changes to the text are where typographical errors
have been corrected as follows:
Page 5, "page 47" changed to "page 49" (in Table of Contents: Chapter
IV ... page 49.)
Page 5, "page 77" changed to "page 75" (in Table of Contents: Chapter
VI ... page 75.)
Page 5, an Appendix starting on p. 122 is not listed in the Table of
Contents.
Page 32, Figure 69 originally on page 32 moved to page 33; appears
as illustration for HTML version and is transcribed as text for this
Plain Text version.
Page 33, note hand-written correction to the poster (Figure 69)
"stamps" should read "letters" (unpaid and unfranked letters will also
run the risk of misdelivery.)
Page 36, missing closing parenthesis added "(Fig. 77)".
Page 45, there is no Figure 123.
Page 45, "129" changed to "128" ("Figs. 126-128".)
Pages 57 & 58, duplicate use of figure numbers 167 and 168.
Page 59, "Womens'" changed to "Womens'" (the Imperial Women's
Patriotic Union.)
Page 70, Figure 221 appears as illustration for HTML version and is
transcribed as text for this Plain Text version.
Page 76, "Fraulein" changed to "Fr[:a]ulein" (an actress Fr[:a]ulein Anna
F[:u]hring).
Page 87, suspected error in original unchanged: "susceptibilities" for
"sensibilities" (which gave offence to Muslim susceptibilities).
Page 103, "incriptions" changed to "inscriptions" (the inscriptions on
which read "Liberty or death...")
Page 108, in the transcription of the overprint "HALILITADO POR LA
JUNTA REVOLUCIONARIA" it is unclear whether "HALILITADO" is an error
for "HABILITADO" in the typesetting or in the original overprint.
Page 122, "Pharoahs" changed to "Pharaohs" (postage stamps of the land
of the Pharaohs).
