Default Braille stamps

The recent post 'stamps for blind poeple' reminded me of the beautiful
Braille stamps the Dutch post office issued recently:

http://www.jandoggen.org/Stamps/Stam...s2009Front.jpg
http://www.jandoggen.org/Stamps/Stam...ps2009Back.jpg

The texts 'miss' characters, these are replaced bij Braille marks.
But the missing characters are printed on the back, so it you hold the sheet
against the light you can make out the groups of three words:

Hulde Roem Mythe
Adres Komst Thuis
Uniek Zelfs Dank
Super Zodra Adieu
Hevig Dwars Naief
Moed Extra Kans
Begin Marge Exact
Afijn Bekaf Kus
Geluk Wens Bravo
Fabel Credo Liefs
Quasi Niets Ophef
Brief Vurig Hart


Bye
Jan
