    Dear Hedy,

    This is an official letter and as far as I understand the letter was disinfected from the sender in Magdeburg. For this reason it was not necessary to perforate the letter. The Province of Saxony (Provinz Sachsen) was a province of the Kingdom of Prussia. The Royal Upper Presidium ("KOENL:OBER/ PRAESIDIUM") of the Province of Saxony was situated in Magdeburg.

    Kind regards
