Inventor:
"
Bhutan's talking stamps were the invention of the American adventurer Burt Todd, who was born into a wealthy Pittsburgh steel-producing dynasty in 1924. Todd?s many other quixotic ventures included setting up a rum-making distillery for the government of Fiji, and buying the Rolls-Royces belonging to Indian maharajas who had been impoverished by the loss of British subsidies when the country gained independence, reselling them on the international classic-car market. After founding his Stamp Agency in Bhutan, Todd realized that to sell large numbers of stamps he needed an attention-gaining approach.
The talking stamps were the crowning glory of Todd's program.
