A service of "special delivery" (express) is designed to ensure the speeding up of the handling of the delivery of the letter to the recipient, involves a special organization of the postal workers, and requires the payment of a designated fee by the sender of the letter. The two envelopes kept in the Alexander Collection shed light on the working procedures of the Israel Post and the working procedures of the British Post in regards to the delivery of express letters.

On January 27, 1934, the Netherlands Post issued stamps for use by the International Tribunal in The Hague.
