PostNord, the Swedish-Danish postal service, is believed to be the first company in the world to turn the flag motif into a stamp.

The firm announced on Wednesday that it wanted to promote the diversity of "modern Sweden" with the project, due for release on May 4th.

"By issuing a stamp with the Pride flag, we want to emphasize the equal value of all people and the strength represented by people’s unique qualities and differences," said Per Ljungberg, Head of Communications at PostNord Sweden, in a press release.

"To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time the Pride flag has been reproduced on a stamp – which makes it particularly gratifying that people will now be able to send affectionate greetings with the Pride Flag stamp to all corners of the world,” he added.

Thanks for posting (see what I did there?), it's nice to have a positive, good news thread to respond to. Good for PostNord Sweden! Nice looking stamp too.
