    Description

    Pan American added Raleigh / Durham to its route system August 1, 1983 with one daily Boeing 727 flight
    which operated from New York to Philadelphia, thence nonstop to Raleigh / Durham.
    This cover was one of
    only ~50 pieces of mail
    carried on the inaugural Pan American flight from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Airport Mail Facility to Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina
    and
    is listed in The American Air Mail Catalogue as PA-D58Sf.
    The
    Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Airport Mail Facility Operations Manager autographed the cover
