Are copies of the icon of Mariapoch readily available from the Shrine for sale?

My great uncle was the pastor at St Barbara's Church in Vienna where the original icon is enshrined. I'd love to have their version!

There is a beautiful copy of the Icon of Mariapoch enshrined at the SS. Cyril and Methodius Orthodox Church at Camp Nazareth in Mercer, PA. The late Metropolitan Nicholas wanted to ensure that future generations would not lose their connection to this most blessed symbol of the resilience of the faith of the Rusyn peoples.

Yes, there are icons of Our Lady of Mariapoch at the Eastern Treasures gift shop at the Shrine. We were there for the Pilgrimage & I believe there were a few sizes of the icon available.

Actually, Alex, the icon is enshrined at Saint Stephen cathedral.

A comparison between how the original icon looks like (on the left) with the copy (on the right): link [zakarpattya.net.ua].

Here is the copy enshrined in Burton, Ohio: link [scontent-a-sjc.xx.fbcdn.net] .
