‘The Simpsons’ Get Their Own Postage Stamps



The characters from “The Simpsons” have officially made Postal Service history. The famous cartoon family is featured on its own set of USPS postage stamps in circulation as of this week, becoming the first TV characters to have their own exclusive stamp while their show is still in production.

‘The Simpsons’ Stamps

“The Simpsons” stamps are each 44-cents and are being sold in books of 20. You can get them at post office locations or have them delivered straight to you by ordering online here. You can also register to win a limited-edition “Simpsons” poster signed by show creator Matt Groening — who, by the way, had the following to say about the honor:

“This is the biggest and most adhesive honor ‘The Simpsons’ has ever received.”

The show’s executive producer, James L. Brooks, added the following:

“We are emotionally moved by the Postal Service selecting us rather than making the lazy choice of someone who has benefited society.”

You can vote on your favorite “Simpsons” stamp at the USPS site here.
