Having your likeness on a stamp is quite an honor.

I've been so excitied about this stamp issue since it was announced back in january 2009 or so...I got 2 sheets at my local post office, to keep and of course not use.....if you go to www.usps.com...under their shopping area, type in the name "Classic TV Favorites" in the search engine and you will find a few collectibles, the best being a 20 postcard booklet for $14.95 of each stamp obviously in postcard size....I ordered three....they are really nice for displaying your favorite series on the refridgerator in a 4X6 magnetic photo holder...just a few ideas for everyone!
