“The Simpsons” — US Postage Stamps

 

I want to get the set of these stamps already—just because.

From CNN:

LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) — Homer Simpson and his cartoon family soon will help you get letters, bills and packages to their destinations.

On Thursday, the U.S. Postal Service revealed five first-class stamps featuring characters from the Fox animated series “The Simpsons” — Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie — that will hit a post office near you May 7.

“This is the biggest and most adhesive honor ‘The Simpsons’ has ever received,” creator Matt Groening said.

The TV show, the longest running prime-time sitcom, was chosen from about 50,000 stamp subject suggestions submitted last year, the Postal Service said.

“We are emotionally moved by the Postal Service selecting us rather than making the lazy choice of someone who has benefited society,” said “Simpsons” producer James L. Brooks.
