Agriculture Stamp Overprinted for Palestine - 1 millieme

This stamp, originally issued by the Kingdom of Egypt to honor rural labor, features a proud Egyptian farmer (fellah) carrying a traditional hoe across his shoulder, set against an oasis village background with a prominent date palm.Following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Egyptian forces assumed administrative control over the Gaza Strip, prompting the military authority to apply the bilingual overprint "PALESTINE / فلسطين" onto existing Egyptian definitive stocks.
