Sesame Street TV Show

Cover Announcement
On November 10, 1969, the very first televisien episode of Sesame Street was aired. During the last half century, the show has provided entertainment and educational programming not only in the United States but throughout the world. To the delight of fans of all ages, the U.S. Postal Service has issued sixteen stamps featuring beloved members of the Muppet cast. When I was doing the research for my cachets, I learned that the term Muppet was derived from the "M" in marionette which replaces the "P" in puppet.
My individually hand painted cachets really capture the essence of each Muppet in the set. It is a colorful and up-lifting series, and each is a feel-good cover. As you look at the enclosed illustrations, envision each of them in bright watercolors which capture the lively vitality of the show. As is often the case, Collins will become the sought after cachets for this set, so be sure to get them now.
Once sold out, these eye-catching Collins covers will always be in demand because most individuals mentally and emotionally connect to happy experiences in their lives. Countless collectors will remember watching America's favorite street themselves, sharing the continuous antics with their children, or being thankful that their grandchildren derive such fun and educational experiences from the colorful Muppets.
To ensure that these special Collins covers are within every hobby budget, they will be sent at one per month. This also allows the time needed for hand painting. Sesame Street has been an unbelievably successful experience in both the realm of entertainment and the ongoing achievements in educational television. Your first cover will be the most recognizable and beloved Muppet - Big Bird. This Collins will become a very popular collectible within the hobby. It is a pleasure to announce that the Sesame Street friends are now ready. Don't miss out.
