Architectural publicity

BOTS

Philatelist's will be quaking with excitement.

I see that the humble postage stamp is set to provide architects with the kind on publicity money can't buy (quote from this weeks BD).

The RIBA has been consulted over the design on six stamps to be issued June 2006. Only two contemporary building have been featured on British Stamps in the last six years - Millennium Bridge in 2002 (is that really a building?) and the Lloyd's Building in 1999.

The Queen will have the final say on what buildings feature.

Get me thinking about other paths of publicity to raise the awareness of the profession, Bank notes came to mind but generally the buildings shown are quite old.

Any others?
