FAROUK SALE BUYER INFORMATION SOUGHT

Leon Worden writes: "I thought there might be an E-Sylum
reader or two who would get a kick out of this ad I came
across in the December 1953 edition of The Numismatist:

'(I) will attend the sale of the Numismatic Collection
from the Palace Collections of Egypt at the Koubbeh Palace
in Cairo next February 24th to March 6th, and will be glad
to execute commissions for any A.N.A. member at a fee of 7 1/2%.
If you want to be sure of receiving the Catalogue, write to
Robert E. Hecht...' "

[Leon is offering this query as a quiz question - Can anyone
tell us who Robert Hecht was?  We are both interested in
learning if there is any record of his actually attending
the 1954 Farouk sale, and if so, what lots he purchased.
