During the period of British rule over the Land of Israel, post offices were established in more than one hundred and thirty settlements all over the country. Some of the post offices were opened in old and established settlements, and others were established in new and sparsely populated settlements that came up on the ground a short time before. One of those settlements was the settlement "Ra’anana", where a postal agency was opened in 1931, which was upgraded three years later to the status of a post office.

Immediately after the assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, the Philatelic Service acted quickly and harnessed all others to issue the stamp within one month of the assassination.
One of the types of postal stationery issued by various postal services around the world. The item consists of a long strip of paper with a printed stamp that can be wrapped around a rolled-up newspaper and sent by mail.
An envelope sent on the island of Trinidad documents an attempt by the local charity to collect donations for the Red Cross during World War I. The course of events turned this activity into a philatelic curiosity.
