Everyone's favorite Golden Girl will be showing up in mailboxes across the U.S. very soon.
The U.S. Postal Service stamp bearing Betty White's smiling face will debut on March 27, after the agency announced in November it would be in the 2025 stamp collection.
"The U.S. Postal Service will commemorate the warmth, wit and charisma of Betty White by honoring the late actress and comedienne with a new stamp bearing her likeness," the postal service said in a release Thursday.
The USPS will host a first-day-of-issue event at the Los Angeles Zoo and Botanical Gardens in just over a month to celebrate the release of the stamp. Attendees can pre-register for the event, which includes free day-of admission to the zoo, the postal service said.
The Forever stamp features a photo of White, taken in 2010 by Kwaku Alston, on a purple background with lighter "bubbly spots that befit her sparkling personality," the postal service said.
White's "impish smile is depicted on the stamp and lit up performances in a career that spanned more than 60 years," the USPS said.
