295 Years Old - An Opportunity?

Sanquhar Post Office is the oldest working Post Office in the world - Google it and see how many entries there are about it. This year it will clock up 295 years of service.
It's recognised internationally and by the Guinness Book of World Records and I know it's a tourist attraction for people the world over, but do we make the most of it as a marketing tool? How about having freely available stickers in the Post Office for customers to help promote Sanquhar? We could put these on our mail and parcels to show they've been sent from the world's oldest Post Office. It would be nice to have some permanent recognition outside the Post Office too.
In another five years, Sanquhar Post Office will celebrate it's 300th birthday. This could be a huge tourism opportunity - any thoughts anyone?
