This 1956 airmail cover
was sent from Burlington, Iowa, to San Francisco, California. It features a
blue and red lozenge border, typical of mid-century airmail stationery. The
circular date stamp marks the departure on June 17, 1956.
The cover is addressed to Geo. D. Austed and includes a signature and purple handstamp from O.J. Hertel, the Burlington Postmaster. This suggests the item might be a philatelic souvenir or a commemorative local mailing.
