The Canal Zone collection, which Kelleher describes as having been carefully formed over multiple generations, will be offered beginning at 11 a.m. It includes many of the intriguing overprint and perforation varieties that have attracted enthusiastic specialist collectors to this territory long under the jurisdiction of the United States.
An example is the 1926 5¢ dark blue Theodore Roosevelt in a vertical pair, with the bottom stamp overprinted “ZONE” only (Scott 86f), a cataloged error of which just 10 examples are known.
The collection also includes airmails, postage due, Officials, postal stationery, and collections.
The Ryukyus collection offers stamps and error varieties, postal history, essays and proofs, revenues, and much more.
