Suggestive postcards featuring buxom women displaying their cleavage have been rejected as stamp designs by Royal Mail.
Leeds firm Bamforth applied to have 10 of its vintage cartoons displayed on customised stamps, known as Smilers. The cards were first produced in 1910.
Royal Mail officials deemed seven of the pictures too rude.

:confused:

Surely most of his stuff was suggestive rather than rude.It was essentially the 'dirty' mind of the viewer that was at fault?
How silly of the Post Office.I think they could have made some money on this.
