UNESCO Campaign - Vatican


Vatican stamps issued in 1964 for the UNESCO Campaign to save Nubian monuments (SG 423-6).

Two of the values depict the entrance to a tomb with the frieze around the doorway showing the way into the Afterlife (early Christians plastered over a picture of a god and inserted St Peter the Apostle); the other two show Trajan's Kiosk.
