The Story of Israel in Stamps
by Maxim & Gabriel Shamir
|
 |
One of the most beautiful products that Israel exports to every part of the world is stamps.
Colorful and exciting Israel stamps find their way into the homes and offices of people all over the globe. Collectors are great enthusiasts about Israel's stamps while people who just enjoy receiving a letter from abroad with a handsome stamp pasted on the envelope enjoy them too.
Somewhere, someone said: "Why don't we use Israel's dramatic stamps to illustrate the story about the country as a whole?"
Instead of photographs, the reader will find in this book the story of Israel illustrated with the stamps that have been produced in the first two decades of its independence.
Maxim and Gabriel Shamir are brothers; they are among the most eminent graphic artists in Israel. Together they have created numerous stamps, medals, coins, banknotes and official emblems of Israel, the most important being Israel's State Coat of Arms.
The Shamir brothers have designed not only many of Israel's postage stamps but have also created stamps for a number of countries in Africa, Asia and South America.
