The visible spectrum of the point-like source with infrared excess CPD-52°9243 is identified; emission and absorption line strengths are given together with various ion velocities of P Cygni profiles; a strong polarization is detected: P ≃ 5 %, θ ≃ 36°. From stellar and interstellar features, a spectral type around B8Ia and a distance of about 3.1 kpcs are derived.

A detailed publication is presently in press in Astronomy and Astrophysics.
