Jordan Definitives and The Dome of the Rock - 1954

JORDAN on 2 September 1954 issued a set of definitive stamps depicting the landmarks of the country and King Hussein. Bradbury, Wilkinson & Co. Ltd used a recess printing method to print these stamps. Various stamps carried face values in Jordanian fils. 

Shown on this postcard is the Ed-Deir Temple in Petra (3 Jordanian Fils) and King Hussein (4 Jordanian Fils). The postcard shows The Dome of the Rock. It was postmarked Amman, Jordan and sent to a Dr. Bernard Zylberberg in Toronto, Canada. The card was printed in Lebanon.

This postcard appears to be an advertising technique used by Abbott Pharmaceutical to promote both its products and tourism overseas.  I have seen similar Abbott Pharmaceutical postcards advertising other products and tourist destinations which were posted to doctors.
