Although I was never that child with the nerdy yet impressive stamp collection, I'll make an exception for Richard Hutten's novel addition to the world of mail. Considering that I'm an avid reader, I may be able to categorize this unique stamp under my book collection. What now?
Well, Richard Hutten's stamp is actually a miniature 8-page, 500-word story by Joost Zwagerman. Commemorating Dutch Book Week 2010, Richard Hutten's book-stamp is currently on sale for €2.20. I want one so badly!
