Political overprint made by France on the back of a banknote issued, a note called \\\"Uncle Ho's banknote.\\\" (see website http://www.psywarrior.com/Vietnambanknote.html). Close translation: \\\"I stand by the door of our house at sunset. I am sad and lonely when I look at our homeland. Since you went to join the maquis, our house is desolate. Our old mother, our children and I, we think of you.\\\"
