"3-Dimensional Wild Animals" lenticular stamps

        I have picked up several of the lenticular stamps made in Bhutan
over the years, with subjects from antique cars to outer space, but I have
never seen the item I came across today.  Perhaps it is not as rare
elsewhere, but it's the first one I've seen in Victoria:

        It is a 10x13" card with the title "3-DIMENSIONAL WILD ANIMALS", a
description that it was issued only to the members of the Postal
Commemorative Society, a drawing of a Lion in the center, and 9 lenticular
stamps of the animals of the "Asian Kingdom"...including The Abominable
Snowman!!!  The caption under the stamp says "The abominable snowman has
not yet been found".  It is a charming display item and luckily the
previous owner(s) has kept it in like-new shape.

        I wonder if this is the only 3D picture of the Abominable Snowman? ;-)
