PRNewsFoto/Twentieth Century Fox Licensing and MerchandisingThe Simpsons have already left their stamp on pop culture—now they're doing the same for your mail.
The U.S. Postal Service today announced plans to immortalize the first family of Springfield in a series of 44-cent first-class stamps that will be available for preview online beginning April 9. At the same time, a sale date will also be announced.
Of the 50,000 stamp suggestions made to the U.S. Postal Service each year, just 20 make it into production.
Talk about taking a licking and keeping on sticking.
The commemorative stamps will feature Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie (sorry, Flanders), and have been designed by the Simpsons mastermind himself, Matt Groening. The stamps come as the show celebrates its 20th season with a yearlong celebration that is set to culminate on Jan. 14, 2010.
