Westminster Philadelphia? Just a guess...

It's hard not to be sarcastic here, but Google is always a good starting point.
Third entry on a Google search turned up this:
Please note that this collection consists of materials gathered by the staff of the PCA Historical Center. The Papers of Dr. Oswald T. Allis are located in the archives at the Montgomery Library of the Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia.

Tempus faciendi, Domine.
What were you looking for, in particular?
Dr Allis's papers might well be at the Montgomery library at Westminster. Grace Mullen is the dear saint in charge of the archival collections there. You would have to write or call to confirm what they have, beyond what is listed on the WTS library catalog. Dr. Allis left Westminster around 1937, if I remember correctly, and spent his remaining years as an independent scholar.
The PCA Historical Center maintains a "miscellany collection" of materials under Allis's name, here: PCA Historical Center : Oswald T. Allis Collection
A miscellany collection is a collection gathered by the staff of the archives. In effect, it is a synthetic collection.
The organic counterpart to a miscellany collection would be the actual papers or manuscript collection of a person, received at the archives from either the creator of the collection or some other individual lawfully holding the collection.

The folks at the PCA Historical Center say that
In all seriousness, the item I quoted probably needs to be corrected if not accurate. But I'll give you all the benefit of the doubt unless you discover it isn't.
