The mandatory stamp of Ra’anana

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.

Canada’s first phosphor stamps

On January 13, 1962, Canada Post first issued stamps with a phosphorous layer on them. The stamps were issued in the city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, as part of the trial of the new sorting machine installed there.
