Send me to your friends. Now eight Swedish comics are available as stamps at your local post office.

Posten, the Swedish Postal Service is releasing a series of stamps, drawn by Swedish comic artists. To promote this Posten is using the comics in alternative media such as advertising on post boxes, a parade of big stamps for two days and quite odd ads.

Terrible. Not ambient at all. People walking around holding a large version of the stamp? Really? How original, at least one of the girls is wearing a newsboy's cap--that's about how old this idea is. I can't believe the average rating is that high.
