Here is Switzerland's February 12, 1998 90 centimes stamp (Sc #1025) publicizing the candidacy of Sion to host the 2006 Winter Olympic Games. Sion (pop. 35,000) is a town in southwestern Switzerland.

I find Mongolian stamps, as a general rule, to be quite lovely: the design and art style nearly always hearkens back to traditional themes.

This pair of rabbits are Lunar New Year issues from 1999.
