van Dam FWS15b, 1940-41, 5 pane booklet, 8 different designs, MNH, Impeccable copy, front and back covers scanned with English on front and French on reverse. An impeccable booklet with all five panes fully intact, with leaflet after 5th pane.

Quoted from CARIS: The Third Issue. Two months after the release of the second issue, a third one appeared on 20 August 1941. It also was issued in panes of eight stamps (formatted 4 by 2) within booklets that contained five panes. Each stamp's colour (rose-carmine) and design of the frame were the same as those used for second issue. However, the design inside the frame differed from stamp to stamp, each portraying a different "theme" that was appropriate for reminding people of the ongoing war. The inscriptions on the booklet's covers continued to read as previously described for the second issue.
