LEWIS ENGINEERING SERVICE
By HENRY B. STERN _
Harold Ribalow's new book,
"The History of Israel's Postage
Stamps," was recently reviewed
in The Jewish News. We add
our praise to this volume which
makes a fine addition to any
stamp collector's library of phi-
latelic literature, It is a helpful
piece of resource material for
the collector who sees his hobby
having an educational as well as
recreational value.
Last week o u r "True or
False?" quiz posed various ques-
tions of philatelic and postal.
history interest. Here are the
answers .. . how well did you
do?
(1) False: Stamps of the U.N.,
which are issued by the United
Nations Postal Administration,
may only -be used at U.N. Head-
quarters in New York.
–
(2) False: Iceland was not one
of the countries whose flags
were pictured on stamps of The
Overrun Countries Issue of
1943-44. These countries were
Poland, Czechoslovakia, Nor-
way, Luxemburg, Netherlands,
Belgium, France, Greece, Yugo-
slavia, Albania, Austria, Den-
mark and Korea (Scott Nos.
909-921).
(3) True: je wish National
Fund seals were used in Israel
as postage stamps. This took
place in Israel during the pe-
riod which preceded the issu-
ance of the first regular postdge
stamps. The J.N.F. seals were
overprinted to indicate their use
as postage stamps.
(4) True: The first regular
stamps of Israel did not have
the name of the country on
them. They merely indicated
"Hebrew Post."
(.5) False: Israel has not been
denied membership in the Uni-
versal Postal Union (a U. N.
agency setting international
postal regulations and rates).
Israel is one of 91 members of
the U.P.U.
(6) False: While the over-
whelming majority of U. S. post-
age stamps have been produced
by the engraving process, the
Overrun Countries Issue men-
tioned above was printed in
part by offset.
(7) True: Postage stamps 01
England (United Kingdom) do
not carry the name of the coun-
try. Minkus Worldwide Nos. 383
and 384 are excluded as the in-
scription on these stamps, "Fes-
tival of Britain," was not shown
to identify the country of ori-
gin per se.
(8) False: Israel specialists
cannot collect plate number
blocks of stamps. Israeli stamps
have "tabs" rather than plate
numbers.
(9) True: Hitler did prepare
stamps for use in India after
t he Nazi hordes were to invade
that country. Never got to use
them though.
(10) True: The coins shown
o n the • first regular postage
s tamps of Israel do date back
o the time of Bar Kochba,
31 - 135 C.E.
