Holy Sepulchre On A Stamp Israel I7?st -1 V-1 1 Visitors to the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem can now purchase a stamp to place on postcards and letters that they send home. The pic- ture of the church, which has within its confines the last five stations of the cross and is iden- tified by Catholics and Orthodox churches as the burial site of Je- sus, is one of a series of nine stamps depicting pilgrimage and tourist locations around Israel. The stamps issued resemble la- bels and are dispensed by an au- tomatic machine rather then a post office counter clerk. "This method enables us to be very flexible," explains Yaakov Vidas, deputy director of the Phi- latelic Service of the Israel Postal Authority. "The purchas- er can adjust the machine to stamp the denomination he re- quires, according to the desti- nation and whether a letter or postcard is being mailed." All the stamps in the series were designed by Israeli artis Marion Kudner. She has drawn the courtyard and entrance of the Church of the Holy Sepul- chre in hues of brown, purple and white. Written on the stamp are the words Jerusalem and Is- rael in English, Hebrew and Arabic.
