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 new settlements was "Kfar Bahadraga", where a local post office was opened in 1944. The letters sent from Kefar Behadraga and kept in the Alexander collection record, in addition to the postmark, a little of the spirit of the time in which they were sent.

In May 1894 the Bundi Post Office issued its first stamps.
To prepare the printing plate, a single stamp plate must be produced and duplicated with as much precision as the number of copies required to print an entire stamp sheet. The process of duplicating a single stamp is susceptible to errors, resulting in copies that differ slightly from the original.
Two stamps attached together with a middle stripe as issued in the original stamp sheet. A pair can consist of two identical stamps, two different stamps (different pair), or two stamps attached while facing each other (opposite pair).
An envelope sent on the island of Trinidad documents an attempt by the local charity to collect donations for the Red Cross during World War I. The course of events turned this activity into a philatelic curiosity.
