Dutch agency Solar Initiative did a pretty cool job developing two sets of dynamic postal stamps for TPG Post. This paper short movie - featuring Dutch speed skater Yvonne van Gennip - has been realized using a lenticular effect technology (New Zealand partners) combined with a unique printing process (Australia partners). Incredible how this global innovation package gets available for... exactly, 39 Eurocents.

The dutch also came out with a lecticular coin about 2 years back. Used a unique engraving process
The TPG Post Lenticular Stamps are in fact 24 frames of historical video footage, at half PAL this is around 2 full seconds they have got into the stamp! This site http://www.lenticular.org.nz is one of the companys that was part of the production, they printed the lenticular part before it got finished into a stamp. There is also a guide on how to prepare artwork for this sort of thing at http://www.lenticular.org.nz/lenticularartwork.htm High precision is vital when printing on the lenticular lens material - the tiniest fault will be magnified ten times through the lenticular lens surface, so there's absolutely no room for error in printing or design!
