Canal Zone Anybody?

pcerio, Every time I check "Allow" and go off the Profile page and the go back, the don't allow is checked...perhaps when my posts reach 50, it will allow the "yes" selection to stay selected.

EDIT: NOTE: as indicated below, I finally corrected this matter and can now receive emails.

3193zd, thanks for the additional information on this beautiful envelope

Want to part with it?

As all can now see by pcerio's post, I can indeed now receive emails!'

Not at this time. It took me a long time to get info on this cover. and Its history keeps evolving. I have a nice canal zone collection of odds and ends. then again everything I collect is odd. I sell the normal or interesting and keep the odd.

Kool answer 3193zd! I have about 750 CZ stamps, all bagged up with many dubs, that I will be listing on ebay sometime after I recover from a forthcoming open heart surgery. Nothing odd about them, that I could tell. I visited your ebay auctions and currently find no items that I don't already have or desire. Nice talking with you! John

One of my favorite collectables is coil stamps and especially Canal Zone coils with coil line pairs being my most desirable. Here's just one example of a Canal Zone Coil line pair:


There is something a bit different than the average coil line pairs. It's a small difference; do you see it and is it somewhat normal?

It is a coil line pair.
Giving the impression the pin punctures are notches.

Yes:

Jomic-3139: Here's the full set

uboatnut, thank you for posting the complete set. I am sure that there are others who will enjoy viewing them!

I trust that SCF doesn't mind me posting this on their site.

The Canal Zone Study Group is conducting a census Report on Strip Liquor Revenues and I am posting their two sided request pages below.

You can either snail mail your completed forms or email them as directed on the 2nd page.

If you enjoy CZ philately you may consider joining the group. Simply go online to "The Canal Zone Study Group" and sign up!

The answer to the question asked of on the coil line pair post is that the top and bottom lines of the design frame do not match up from stamp to stamp.

Jomic-3139. I would glad to respond to the Canal Zone liquor strip strip census, but frankly I can neither make heads nor tails of the listing without more information and/or illustrations. Does this in any way follow the listings of Entwhistle or Joe Ross? I have my strip stamps mounted by date and law (ley) number. Does this listing do the same?

Is no one interested in the liquor meters?

revenuemd, I have emailed Tom at the CZSG and am awaiting his response which upon arrival, I will post here.

In the meantime could you post some of your pictures of Canal Zone Strip Liquor Revenues for us?

Thanks for your interest.

John

revenuemd, posted below are the Pictures and checklist along with the Canal Zone Study Group's numbers. Hope this helps in your participation in the census.

I did not even know these little buggers existed until the article appeared in "The Canal Zone Philatelist". John
