New Israeli stamps

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Israel museum, new stamps include the Cyrus declaration allowing Jews to return to the Land of Israel 60 years after their exile to Babylon 2600 years ago. A replica of the declaration is on display in the museum’s “Rivers of Babylon” exhibit.
