I was quite impressed with lady who stamped my passport. She did it very carefully and the stamp was perfectly centered on the visa page, not even off by one degree. It was the "most beautiful" stamp in my old passport... unlike how the real immigration officers who put stamps all over my passport, some even upside-down...

Edit: Google is your friend... I did a little search for you, here are some photos you may be interested in:

Thanks. I've seen the stamps in other's passports in more recent years but don't have one myself. I had thought tourists going there were going there to send stamps or get postmarks noting that they were in Liechtenstein. I didn't realize people also go there to line up to get passport stamps.
