I agree that this is great news @Oznell. I've just finished my huge stock of Jimi Hendrix stamps and will restock with Fred Rogers.

First time ever Jimi Hendrix and Fred Rogers have been used in the same sentence!!!

I didn't care for the puppets since I found them creepy.

Me, too.

The puppet part of the show was kind of boring, I must admit. (And a little creepy too.)

The Mr Rodgers forever stamps are now available for purchase. They went on sale yesterday.

I seldom have the need for stamps but I think it's wonderful that Tom Hanks will be playing "Mr Rogers" in a movie.

Such a nice piece of news. The "Mr. Rogers" stamp wil be unveiled in March at the Pittsburgh TV studio where the award-winning children's show was produced.

Fred Rogers will share the stamp with "King Friday", one of his many puppet characters.

"Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" was such an affirming, yet soothing show for children. Tranquillizing for adults too. Mr. Rogers just radiated goodness, uprightness, intellectual curiosity. All qualities you'd want to see beamed at children, especially children who might be a little lost and needy.

A well-deserved honor to the memory of a wonderful man!

@Oznell

Never heard of ..... or ever saw ...... this show .... so thank you for explaining who he is. Is this show still on the air?

@Tinkrbl44 it might be in syndication. Fred passed away some years back

I don't know for certain, @Tinkrbl44, but his show seems to be so popular with kids and parents, that I'm going to guess that PBS or some channel is perpetually showing reruns of it. If not, they should!
