Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries sale 294 realized 650
Identified as 12/11/50 in the Thomas J Alexander papers in the APRL
Alexander listed as 12/11/50
The faint docking below the postmark does not seem to read 12/11 (the day appears to be a single digit due to the closeness of the slashes and the month looks more like 4 instead of 12) but this cover does not match the other 12 covers sent from Philadelphia to Holland listed in Alexander.
