These stamps show a portrait of Simon Wiesenthal in a frame in the form of the Star of David, applied using a special printing technology. The technique used in the production of this joint issue is a world premiere! The text elements on the stamp are in both German and Hebrew.

Simon Wiesenthal was an Austrian-Jewish architectural engineer and Holocaust survivor who became famous after World War II for his work as a Nazi hunter who pursued Nazi war criminals. His life motto was Justice not Vengeance.

The stamp depicts the declaration of the establishment of the state of Israel by David Ben-Gurion, Israeli leader and the first Prime Minister. He was a key figure in Israel independence and the establishment of a Jewish nationality and state in Israel after the Holocaust by which the Nazi's killed 6,000,000 Jews in Europe.

New Cover from Shimla...







National Academy of Audit & Accounts, Shimla



Here is recent cover issued by HP Postal Circle on National Academy of Audit & Accounts. The cover was released by Vice President of India, Shri Mohammad Hamid Ansari on 18th May during the Diamond Jubilee function of the Academy at Yarrows in Shimla . Thanks to Ms Bhumika Sharma, who sent the scan of the cover from Shimla. But it is highly surprising to see that Rs 10 definitive stamp has been used on the cover, instead of Rs 5 commemorative stamp. In my opinion the issuing authority should take notice of this and use Rs 5 stamp on the cover which may be most relevant .
