Just want to give a heads-up to all the Gregory Peck fans out there. Later this week, the United States Postal Sevice will release another of its "Hollywood Legends" postage stamps. This newest stamp, which will be a "forever stamp," features Mr. Peck in his Academy Award-winning role of Atticus Finch (To Kill a Mockingbird).
I know that I will be purchasing several sheets of these beautiful stamps, and for the next several months, it is the ONLY stamp I will be using...just like the gorgeous Gary Cooper stamp was the only stamp I used from September 2009 until this past month when I used the last one I had.
Oooh, thanks for the reminder, Patti! I will definitely buy a few. Some to use, and some to save!! :)
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite actors! And, for a number of years, we lived in the same town and saw each other frequently. I knew him. He knew me only as the mother of the little blonde baby who met her friend at Harry's Coffee Shop in La Jolla. I think he went every day and had his own booth. I also saw him once putting groceries in his trunk at Jonathan's Grocery. I never got the nerve to ask for his autograph alas!

Looks like I need to head over to the post office. Thanks for the heads up.

Oh yea, and how is school coming along??
That is so cool!! I had no idea the Postal Service was doing that!
ReplyDeletePatti: It was me--Monty and me on a barstool in a diner in Danville, KY. I remember knowing he was someone special and thought him to be very old!! He was probably in his mid-30s!!
