Signs on stamps; what's not to like.

As part of the centenary celebrations for Route 66 the United States Postal Service is issuing this series of stamps that prominantly feature neon and motel signs.

I'd love to know if this is a first, or if signs on stamps have been done before?

Sheet of eight Route 66 themed stamps. In addition to neon and motel signs shown in daylight and at night there is one of a vintage car driving the road, one showing a retro gas pump, and another of a large colonial era building that's probably famous in the USA, but which I'm not familiar with.
