Jewish National Fund: House in Herzl Forest

Jewish National Fund (Mandatory Palestine) · 1916 · Not applicable

The sealing stamp features a stylized house with a tiled roof, surrounded by trees, representing the Herzl forest in Hulda. The text 'KKL' (Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael) and 'JNF' (Jewish National Fund) are prominently displayed, along with the year '1916'.

This sealing stamp was issued by the Jewish National Fund in 1916, during World War I, to raise funds for land acquisition and development in Ottoman Palestine, a key aspect of the Zionist movement. It highlights the JNF's efforts in establishing settlements and afforestation, such as the Herzl Forest.
