Israel
Philately: Vending Machine Stamps (ATM)
Vending
machine stamps, known by different names alluding to the different
machines and methods of production used have become extremely popular
with the public at large. They are easily accessible by the public
when stamps are required and the local post office is either closed
or there is none close by. Different denominations can be
printed on the stamps at the time of purchase, different designs
are used such as the XMAS stamps each year, the popular bird series,
etc, they are self-adhesive and can also be purchased in small
quantities. Many of the early ones are now extremely expensive
because of the limited time an ATM machine may have been available
at a certain place or certain time. Their popularity continues
to grow. |
