LOS ANGELES - Most frogs settle for lily pads. Kermit the Frog has hopped onto a U.S. postage stamp.
The green leader of the beloved Muppets troupe was on hand Wednesday for a first-day issue ceremony featuring 11 postage stamps honoring the Muppets and late creator Jim Henson at the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
"On behalf of the Muppets, it is a great honor to be featured on our own set of stamps," Kermit said through a human intermediary.
Henson, Kermit, Miss Piggy, the Swedish Chef, and Dr. Bunson Honeydew and his assistant, Beaker, are among those honored in the Postal Service set.
The 37-cent stamps were released nationally on Thursday.
