Charles M. Schulz Stamps
Forever 78¢ | Sheet Stamp Format

On the centennial of the famed cartoonist’s birth, this issuance celebrates Charles M. Schulz with stamps featuring his beloved Peanuts characters. The sheet of 20 stamps includes 10 different designs that showcase Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and other unforgettable friends from the most successful comic strip in the history of the medium.

Schulz’s surname signature appears in black, reading vertically upward along the right-hand side of each stamp. A 1987 photograph of the cartoonist, taken by Douglas Kirkland, appears in the center of the pane. The portrait is framed by the characters Schulz brought to life. Schulz’s surname signature appears under the photo, followed by the caption “Charles M. Schulz Centennial 2022."

Debuting in 1950, Peanuts garnered hundreds of millions of readers worldwide. Each character reflects Schulz’s rich imagination and great humanity. Charlie Brown, at the heart of Peanuts, is often defeated but always resilient. Schulz’s resonant stories found humor in life’s painful realities including rejection, insecurity, and unrequited love.

Peanuts became a worldwide phenomenon and its characters were also featured on television specials, in books, a Broadway show, and countless consumer products. Over the course of five decades Schulz wrote and drew nearly 18,000 strips.

The Charles M. Schulz stamps are being issued as Forever® stamps. These Forever stamps are always equal in value to the current First-Class Mail® one-ounce price.
