The best souvenir ever

I was at Old Parliament Hour last weekend. Mainly to go to the National Portrait Gallery, which was awesome (but that's another story), and after the all the viewing pleasure of the exhibition (which was great, by the way) there was the mandatory browse through the gift shop.

Whilst there, I think I saw the best souvenir ever. They had these amazing postcards. You could write on them and post them, like a normal postcard. But on the other side was a very special photo of OPH (Old Parliament House), and inset into the postcard were two plastic lenses.

The trick was, that if you folded on the dotted lines, once you received the postcard, the lenses and the very special picture, set up this fantastic 3-dimensional picture of OPH.

Sensational! I think they should do that for all the good tourist destinations!
