Thanks for posting! Hope you'll like those cowstamps, too. The one on the right shows some cows far away in a meadow, the one left to this is from a serie about inventions. It shows the milk robot ('automatic milking system', AMS), invented to get the cow's milk easier and faster. I cannot see if the drawn cow is laughing, too, but I am told that dairy cows are happy when they are released from the many kilos milk in their udder. And by this AMS (also called 'voluntary milking system', http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_milking) they have the opportunity to decide her own milking time (as long as there are no other cows standing in the way), which is good for the cow, too. (However I think it sad for them that they have been breeded to produce so much milk.)
Regarding the 'milk robot': I found a nice sketch for this stamp, see somewhere in the middle of http://www.postzegelblog.nl/2010/02/09/postzegels-100-jaar-octrooibeschermingwet-nader-bekeken-2/

Oh, thanks. I wasn't sure about the machine. I'll publish in a separate post about it!
DeleteI love your statistics about the project :)
Thank you!
