# Israel

The first meter was installed in 1950. All franks are inscribed “ISRAEL” in Hebrew, English, and Arabic with the Hebrew version (ישראל) largest and usually at the top. Town marks also are usually, but not always, tri-lingual.
For stamps used in the region of Israel before 1950, see “PALESTINE”.
The stamps are grouped according to appearance or use as follows:
* A - Frank with simulated perforation outer border
* B - Frank with double straight-line outer border
* C - Frank with single-line outer border with rounded corners
* PO - Stamps generated only by meters in Post Offices
For specialized information about the meter stamps of Israel, see Israel Meter Postage Stamps, 1988 Catalog, and 1991 Supplement, by Dr. E. Foa, self-published, Rehovot, Israel.
