This illustrated guide is intended to assist anyone interested in the study of early Palestine overprints. The following illustrated guide will ask a few simple questions and provide you with the details you need to identify your stamps. The process you will be using to identify your Palestine overprint is the same process our Palestine expert uses in his daily work. Start by answering question 1 below:
