Israel is well known for producing Tete-Beche examples of their issues, especially so of the earlier and definitive types. Most were printed that way for ease of cutting into booklet panes. But many sheets or large blocks reach the open market. Less often seen are Tete-Beche examples of ATM's or Computer-Vended labels. The one below was on offer from Israel Post to visitors at 'Jerusalem 2010', a Bi-National Stamp Exhibition held in the Capital. The Labels show the value for the regular letter postage rate at the time and the sheet cost NIS17 with no mark-up. The Tete--Beche Self-Adhesive sheet shows scenes of Jerusalem in the central gutter including the Western Wall and Absalom's Pillar. Note the positions of the cancellations on each strip !!!   |

The 'Tourist' series of Klussendorf ATM's were also issued with 'symbolic' values for collectors and....er....tourists !! There were 10 scenes in total including the tariffed set of Haifa shown in the previous post. Shown here is a part set of 30 agorot values which by themselves had no postal value but could be used as a make-up stamp together with other stamps or ATM's to the postal rate required. But the idea was that these would be used by collectors or tourists as souvenirs. 6 more Israel tourist sites. All these were issued in the 1990's and were the last Klussedorf ATM's to be used in Israel. Special packs and covers were produced in January 1999 with symbolic values on all 10 types. As a fan of these types of ATM's, I was saddened by their demise. I never heard of a reason to change but understood a locally made machine was to take it's place. (Maor) The Last of the Klussendorf Postage labels in Israel. Part set of 6.   |
