In June 2012, 135 years after its first publication, the Dutch postal
service launched a sheet of 10 stamps, containing 6 editions of the so
called "Bosatlas", published between 1877 and 2012; see
<http://persons.kb.nl/jsmits/cartifact/netherlands41.html>
It is now in its 54th edition under the title "De grote Bosatlas : voor
vmbo-havo-vwo" (ISBN 978-90-01-12600-1) and has had many derivatives and
foreign editions through the past years.
I wonder whether digital publications can/will also be (digitally)
honoured in such a way in the future!
