Saudi Arabia · 1934 · 1/4g

This definitive stamp features a portrait of King Abdulaziz Al Saud, the founder of modern Saudi Arabia. The design is simple, focusing on the monarch's profile within an ornate frame, with inscriptions in Arabic. It is part of a long-running series that was fundamental to the postal system of the newly unified kingdom.

Issued in 1934, this stamp represents the early period of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which was officially founded just two years prior in 1932. These definitives were among the first to circulate widely across the unified nation.
