Rubber is used to print images on a surface. Rubber stamps can be made out of an image with the principle of vulcanizing rubber.

In the art-world there is also the rubber stamp art. See also mail art. Sometimes the rubber stamps are self-made or even carved out of erasers[?].

Rubber stamp is also a political adjective, refering to an institution that has little power and rarely disagrees with more powerful organs. For example, in a dictatorship, the parliament may be little more than a "rubber stamp" of approval on the dictator's decrees.
