This is a world premiere: Hipstamatic photos have been used for postage stamps! The Postal Service of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg launched the project, commissioning Francois Besch to produce a series of 5 stamps.

Of 2500 species of mushroom - the theme for this project -  found in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, 5 were selected for this series; they are sold as a set of 10 for 6 Euros. 1 million of them were printed, which accounts for 10 million Hipstamatic prints in circulation... Bravo Francois!
