Lebanon Airmail, Cedar of Lebanon

Lebanon · 1947 · 25p

This airmail stamp features a prominent depiction of the Cedar of Lebanon (Cedrus libani), a powerful national symbol for the country. The tree is rendered in detail against a simple, solid-colored background, with the denomination and country names in both Arabic and French.

Issued shortly after Lebanon gained full independence in 1943, this stamp series helped establish a new national identity, using the ancient and resilient cedar tree as a central motif.
