The US Postal Service will be releasing an “Early TV Memories” stamp set this year devoted to the golden age of television – you know, the one we totally delight ourselves in. Included in the set will be (of course) our beloved Lucy and Ethel. Their stamp commemorates their stellar job on the chocolate assembly line.
Also featured in the set will be Joe Friday, Groucho Marx, Dinah Shore (hers shows her throwing her audience a kiss), The Adventures of Ozzie & Harriet, Alfred Hitchcock Presents, The Ed Sullivan Show, The George Burns & Gracie Allen Show, The Honeymooners, The Howdy Doody Show, Kukla, Fran and Ollie, Lassie, The Lone Ranger, Perry Mason, The Phil Silvers Show, The Red Skelton Show, Tonight Show and The Twilight Zone.
Sigh. I just wish we had a network that aired these classics. TV Land should launch a sister network called TV Land Classic. There are just too many great shows for them to show at once.
The Early TV Memories stamp set is scheduled for release Aug. 11 in Los Angeles. This is one stamp set I’ll be collecting – to the tune of every single one.
