Egypt's first commemorative stamp was issued in April 1925, during the reign of King Fouad, to mark the International Geographical Conference in Cairo. It was printed by the Egyptian Survey Department in Giza. This was followed by more than 225 similar issues. This full-colour volume documents all of these commemorative issues up to January 1966, the centenary of the first Egyptian postage stamp during the reign of Khedive Ismail. This volume continues the work presented in previous volumes. It was awarded the Certificate of Invitation to the Egypt Exhibit at the International Exhibition MonacoPhil 2019, signed by His Serene Highness Albert II, Sovereign Prince of Monaco. In his review of this work, Mr. Mike Murphy, Secretary and Editor of the Egypt Study Circle, U.K., said, Professor Sami Fereig ... has succeeded admirably in presenting a unique glimpse into two apparently unconnected worlds - those of philately and daily events - and brought them together with a linking that proves beyond doubt that the two can be seen as halves of the whole. Dr. Eng. Sherif Samra, President of the Philatelic Society of Egypt, said, It was a great effort and indeed a remarkable trail to build on previous philatelic works to improve our understanding of the combination between history and philately. Prof. John Dunn, History Department, Valdosta State University, U.S.A. said, ... I've never seen a better example of 'postal history'. Thanks for your monumental efforts.
