The bottom band details all the life saving equipment used in the images, giving their prices. In part: ‘...LIFE RAFT inflates itself from a small, 17-pound cushion into the rubber raft itself ($65)...four distress flares (89c)...oxygen mask ($2)...electrically heated flying suit ($38)...NOTE – The bottom of the life raft is blue so that when inverted it can escape detection from enemy airmen...10 yards of bandages with sulfanilamide powder (27c)...’ No printing line.
