LOS ANGELES — Betty White is making her mark on the nation’s snail mail.

The beloved actor of “The Golden Girls” fame was celebrated with a new U.S. Postal Service stamp at a first-day-of-issue ceremony Thursday at the Los Angeles Zoo.

Fans who were crowded behind barricades cheered as a blue curtain dropped to reveal the stamp featuring a portrait of White against a violet-colored background with lighter shades of bubbly spots in a nod to her sparkling personality. She wears a blue polka-dot blouse, and peeking out of her blond curls is an earring shaped like a pawprint.

White had worked with the zoo since its opening in 1966 until her death in December 2021, a couple weeks shy of her 100th birthday. — Associated Press
