Coming To A Post Office Near You: The Simpsons

425adsimpsonsstmps040909

Quick!  What do Ella Fitzgerald, James Dean, Andy Warhol and The Simpsons have in common?  They have all been pictured on U.S. postage stamps!  Yes, now you can mail letters with Simpsons stamps.

Creator Matt Groening quipped:

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

The show’s producer, James L. Brooks, couldn’t help but get a word in as well:

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

The Simpsons stamps feature Homer, Marge, Lisa, Bart, and Maggie, and will mark the FOX show’s 20th anniversary this year.  The USPS hopes that these stamps will encourage young people to get into stamp collecting.  Watch for them at a post office near you on May 7th.
