    MNH ~ Special Miniature Sheet which Plays Music !
    A
    Record
    gift from Swiss Post ~ Plays Music !!
    Swiss Post has launched an innovative stamp that you can not only look at, lick and stick, but that also makes music !
    In many of us, the black 45 and 33 rpm vinyl discs evoke nostalgic memories. Now they are the subject of an exclusive miniature sheet included in the latest stamp issue !
    The latter will literally be music to the ears of many stamp enthusiasts.
    Even if the stamp, which is suitable for franking, is detached from the miniature sheet, a specially engraved soundtrack still allows the miniature sheet to be played on a record player which is set to 33 rpm.
    The soundtrack includes a brass band version of the Swiss national anthem.
    The stamp measures 168 × 137 millimeters and rotates on the record player at 33 rpm.
