The United States Post Office has scheduled sale of a 1968 Christmas stamp, an action that in recent years has drawn protests from Jewish organizations including the American Jewish Congress. They claim that it violates the church-state separation provision of the Constitution. The six-cents stamp will go on sale on Nov. 1. It is based on a detail from “The Annunciation” by Jan van Eyck, the 15th Century Flemish artist. The painting is in the National Art Gallery in Washington.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
