  • Lot# : 3675 Panama

    Combination Usage with Colombia, 1892: 10 c. orange, overlapping a Colombia 1892 20 c. brown on blue, used on cover sent to Paris, dated 20 November 1894, probably sent from a Pacific coast town, with Panama transit alongside, French packet octagonal in blue to front November 1894 (the day unclear possibly 30), a further Panama transit to reverse, 10 c. has small corner bend and the 20 c. has trimmed perfs. at base, small fault centrally to envelope which has been repaired although does not detract, rare. Fewer than four mixed franking covers reported during this period. rnNote: It appears that the 20 c. stamp was ignored by the postal clerk and who added the 10 c. which was not necessary as Colombia stamps were valid in the Panama Isthmus.rnProvenance: Ex Jairo Londoño de Tamayo Collection.
