Grandma's Customs

Kind of an interesting little scrap.  Dated 3/29/49.  It is a customs receipt fro my Grandmother, Helen Dick.  It looks like some material imported from Canada.  The value of the property was $4.00.  The rate of customs was 70%.  So, Grandma paid $4.00 for the material and $2.80 to customs.  Jeez!
