Palestine Stamps (1865 – 1981)

Description

Illustrated Palestine stamps from 1865-1981 by Dr Nabil Shaath and Hasna Reda Mekdashi

This book includes all the postage stamps used in Palestine since the mail system was introduced in 1840, including those produced by the Arab revolutionaries during their revolts prior to 1948 and after 1967 in the Diaspora. The stamps produced by the revolutionaries are about 30, and the rest were produced by the Ottoman State, the foreign consulates, the British mandate, and the occupation authorities.

This book includes colour reproductions of the various stamps used in Palestine over more than 100 years.
