Issued in 1959, this dynamic 0.25 Israeli stamp celebrates the Réunion Hapoel, an international sports gathering organized by the Hapoel sports association. The design portrays a powerful javelin thrower in mid-action, rendered in bold stylized lines and contrasting shades of turquoise, blue, and maroon—symbolizing athletic energy and unity. It reflects Israel’s post-independence commitment to international sporting camaraderie and the Hapoel movement’s socialist-inspired ideals of fitness and teamwork. Designed by Zvi Narkiss, the issue remains a vibrant highlight for sports and thematic collectors.
