Praise be! Muppet news is scarce these days, but this is something Ive been wanting for awhile. Sure, this wont be the first time Muppets have graces a US postage stamp(remember Big Bird? And didnt Rowlf have his own stamp in the 80's?) but man...a whole sheet of Muppet stamps with JH himself...a truly special occation. This is another significant win in the battle to get the Muppets back out there and acknoleged.

Hooray! What awesome news! I've never really collected stamps, but I'll probably have to buy at least one sheet to preserve and many many to send. They'll look great with my Sesame Street address labels!
