     In 1955 and 1957 seven Arab countries celebrated the establishment of the Arab Postal Union in 1953 with an issue of stamps showing a map of the Mideast. On the stamps issued by Egypt, Jordan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia  the Persian Gulf is missing.

     Whenever I have seen this error mentioned, the stamps from Lebanon are also identified as having the same error. An examination of the Lebanese stamps shows that the Persian Gulf is shown on them.
