First American Synagogue, Recife, Brazil
In 2001 Brazil issued a postage stamp to commemorate the First American Synagogue. The Star of David marks Recife on Brazil’s map.
Year Counting Systems
In 2001 Brazil issued a series of three postage stamps dedicated to the Jewish Christian and the Arab year counting system. One of the stamps shows the Star of David and the Hebrew word for Israel.
Israel Germany Relationships
Colorful Star of David on a German stamp issued to mark the launch of a Jewish center on 13 March 2007 in Munich. I reckon if someone will make a presentation about the charged relationships between Israel and Germany as they are reflected through postage stamps it would be quite remarkable.
