Approach to Jerusalem

This stamp depicts the 'Approach to Jerusalem' (Road to Jerusalem), issued 1949. Symbolically important, showing the newly opened road to the besieged city during the War of Independence. Singles without tabs are modestly priced and widely collected for their historical significance. A favorite among collectors focusing on the Israeli War of Independence era.

The tab enhances both the visual and historical appeal of this symbolically charged stamp. Tab examples are considerably scarcer than singles. Condition centering and tab integrity are the primary factors in valuation.
