You might be able to get a few dollars for it from someone looking for World War 2 memorabilia. Book 4 was a sort of catch all for things like tires and shoes and not one used often.

A few dollars to the right collector. Everyone that lived in the US was issued ration books, so they are pretty common. Finding one with a lot of stamps left in it is much harder. That would mean that the person didn't use their stamps to buy goods.

What was an A sticker used for during World War 2?

Gasoline was rationed on May 15, 1942 on the east coast of the US, and nationwide that December. The Office of Price Administration issued various stickers to be affixed to the car's windshield, depending on need. To get your classification and ration stamps, you had to certify to a local board that you needed gas and owned no more than five tires.The 'A' sticker was issued to owners whose use of their cars wasnonessential. Hand the pump jockey your Mileage Ration Book coupons andcash, and she (yes, female service station attendants) could sell you threeor four gallons a week, no more (there was no "self service"). For nearly a year, A-stickered cars were not to be driven for pleasure at all.The green 'B' sticker was for driving deemed essential to the war effort;industrial war workers, for example, could purchase eight gallons a week.Red 'C' stickers indicated physicians, ministers, mail carriers and railroadworkers, and incidentally were the most counterfeited type. 'T' was fortruckers, and the rare 'X' sticker went to Members of Congress and other VIPs.
