Doar 24 - Rose
The Israel Postal Company introduced a new service in 2005 called the Doar 24. This service would deliver within one business day for items that were sent out before 4:00 p.m.

This stamp nicely illustrates the holiday and sadness of Tisha B’Av. Candles to mark the sadness of destruction, and color to showcase it’s a holiday in which despite the ruins, the Jewish nation survived. Do you know how many weeks of mourning precede the holiday?
