LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — Get ready to make your mail a true daily double.

The U.S. Postal Service announced Friday that it will honor Alex Trebek, the late host of the game show mainstay "Jeopardy!," with his own stamp.

The grid of 20 stamps resembles the array of video screens seen on "Jeopardy!"

Each stamp shares the clue "THIS NATURALIZED U.S. CITIZEN HOSTED THE QUIZ SHOW 'JEOPARDY!' FOR 37 SEASONS" and the correct response, "Who is Alex Trebek?"

USPS art directorAntonio Alcalá designed the stamps, which will be part of the Forever stamp series.

Presales opened Friday online at usps.com to purchase the stamp. They will also become available at post office locations nationwide following their issuance on July 22.

This year marks the 60th anniversary of "Jeopardy!" first arriving on the airwaves. Trebek hosted 37 seasons of the show before his death from pancreatic cancer in 2020.
