Welcome to Palestine Stamps
A historic collection of 209 Palestine postage stamps
✨ Discovery of the day
Year: 1948
Air Mail and Delta Barrage - 8 millieme
This stamp highlights the convergence of technological progress and vital infrastructure planning during the mid-20th century under the Egyptian military administration of the Gaza Strip. The composite illustration features a four-engine transport aircraft in flight alongside the monumental Delta Barrage (Kalyoubiaz) on the Nile, balanced by an imperial portrait of King Farouk I in a fez. The message carried by the illustration is one of comprehensive state building, linking the speed of modern Poste Aérienne logistics with the monumental civil engineering that anchored the region's agricultural economy. In the context of post-1948 Palestine, the dual overprints overwriting the Egypte base stamp serve as a powerful institutional symbol, documenting how Gaza's postal services were bound directly to Cairo’s infrastructural and political authority while preserving a distinct territorial identity on official correspondence.
