Dobush from Kfar Aza sent me this 1986 American Postage Stamp issued to mark the 100th anniversary of Yeshiva University. It has a tiny star of David hidden in the beard of Rabbi Bernard Revel.
This blog (by Zeev Barkan) is dedicated to the Star of David, its history, its various meanings and usages in different cultures. It includes thousands of pictures of Star of David, six-pointed stars, hexagrams, Solomon's Seals, Magen Davids and yellow badges,and served as a resource for three books and four art exhibitions.
