Everyone's favorite golden girl will shine on a postage stamp in 2025. Betty White fans will be able to get this exclusive, new item next year.

NBC News shared information about what the Betty White stamp will look like. They explained that the stamp will have a picture of White from 2010 that was taken by Kwaku Alston.

USA Today explained that this will consist of 20 stamps on a sheet.  There will be a purple background with a picture of White smiling. 

USA Today shared that other famous TV hosts such as Lucille Ball, Rod Serling and Bob Hope also have postage stamps in their names. I'll have to find a postage stamp honoring Rod Serling, creator of the Twilight Zone because I love those series.

I always watched "The Golden Girls" and I'm excited to get this postage stamp of White, next year.
