Up for sale a RARE! "IBM" T. Vincent Learson Hand Signed First Day Cover Dated 1959. ES-6469E Thomas Vincent Learson (September 26, 1912 – November 4, 1996) was IBM's chairman and chief executive officer from June 1971 through January 1973. He was succeeded by Frank T. Cary.

He graduated from Boston Latin School in 1931, then majored in mathematics at Harvard University, graduating in 1935. From 1975 to 1977 he was Ambassador-at-Large for Law of the Sea Matters and Special Representative of the President for the Law of the Sea Conference, and Chief of Delegation. He died at age 84 and is buried with his wife Gladys at the Gate of Heaven Cemetery, in Hawthorne, New York.
