Rabbis on Stamps – Online Exhibit
Authors: Leiman Library
The Leiman Library of Judaica located in Kew Gardens Hills, N.Y. has launched an exhibit of over 200 depictions of rabbis on stamps. The stamps are arranged by rabbi, in chronological order. Thus, the list opens with Rabbi Joshua b. Hananiah, a second century C.E. rabbi, and closes with Rabbi Yonah Metzger, Ashkenazic Chief Rabbi of Israel, alive and well in the 21st century. In every entry, there is a listing of the name of the rabbi, the date of his death (or birth, if still living), the country of origin of the stamp, and the year of publication of the stamp.
