Book-shaped stamp (also: stamp-shaped book)
TNT Post has issued an 8-page stamp in honour of the Dutch book week, which runs from March 10-20.
The stamp is valued at 2.20 euro, which according to TNT’s press release should be enough to send somebody a book.
The book on the stamp was written by Joost Zwagerman (photo), and can also be downloaded here. The book stamp was designed by Richard Hutten. It measures 3 × 4 centimetres, and 266,000 copies were made.

How would this pass the automatic mail sorting machines? Will these books all be dog eared when you receive them?
