Mr. Rogers Gets His Own Stamp

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Children's television icon Fred Rogers of "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" is getting his own stamp.

He'll be featured on a U.S. Postal Service Forever stamp.

Rogers received more than 4,000 a year from young viewers.

Rogers used the letters as a way to gauge just how the program impacted other people's lives.

The stamp shows Rogers in his trademark red cardigan sweater.

Fred Rogers died in 2003.
