Your favourite Australian TV legends have been immortalised on postage stamps

They’ve been a fixture on our screens for decades, and now some of Australia’s favourite TV stars can be stuck to your mail too.

Five small screen legends will be available on $1 stamps, including Bert Newton, Kerri-Anne Kennerley, Ray Martin, Denise Drysdale and Daryl Somers.

Each stamp features a picture of the celebrities from their heyday next to a current photo. The caption above reads ‘Australian Legends.’

Patti Newton took to Instagram to share a snap of the stamps at the launch, captioning the image, “Very thrilled for these Legends to have their own stamp congratulations x”.

She later shared a shot of Kerri-Anne, Ray, herself and Bert together at the Official Australia Day Luncheon, which launched the stamps.
