SpongeBob Squarepants Forever Stamps

Four designs from the Nickelodeon series, issued in August 2025: two close-ups of SpongeBob's grin, one of him with Patrick Star, and one ensemble shot with Patrick, Sandy Cheeks, Plankton, Mr. Krabs, Gary and Squidward. Greg Breeding art-directed using artwork supplied by Nickelodeon. The show has been running since 1999, which means the adults buying these mostly watched it themselves.

Note the format before you order: these come in panes of 16, not the usual 20, so the arithmetic against a party list is different. They go on children's birthday invitations and thank-you notes, letters to grandchildren, care packages, and classroom mail. Plenty of adults use them on ordinary correspondence without apology, and the ensemble design is the one to save for anyone with a favorite who is not SpongeBob. Forever value applies, so each one covers a one-ounce letter at the current 82¢ rate whenever you get round to using it.
