The picture is of Uncle Sam reaching down to check on whether Hansel has grown fatter, while Gretel sits nearby. Both copies include an insert "Hansel and Gretel Meet Usops." The insert answers my question in its second sentence by identifying USOPS as United State Office Postal Service. In this version, Gretel took along her stamp album, and that saved the two children. The children come upon a post office made of magnificent stamps. The story goes on from there. Notice that each of the four envelopes carries a different number out of 162: 40, 68, 95, and 138. I need to stop buying these envelopes!
