#mittfrimärke
Sweden – PostNord’s Instagram competition, #mittfrimärke, allowed Swedes to compete for the first time to have their Instagram pictures depicted on actual stamps.
More than 20,000 Instagram pictures participated in the competition, of which three winners were selected by the Swedish people and an additional four winners were selected by PostNord’s Stamp Advisory Committee.
Contemporary depiction of Sweden
Stamps are popular, but the interest in the #mittfrimärke competition exceeded all expectations. The stamps that are issued should reflect a contemporary view of Sweden, which makes it all the more fun to turn Instagram pictures into real stamps.
