Are there letters in that mailbox?

Yes, that's Leonard Cohen on that mailbox. Over two years in the making, this past September Canada Post released 3 commemorative stamps to coincide with what would have been Leonard Cohen's 85th birthday. Since then, mailboxes and mail trucks have hit the streets wrapped in his likeness. For fans and philatelists, several products are available, from standard 9 pack stamp booklets to more collectible 6 and 12 stamp panes and a set of 4 first day covers.
