...You sure do know how to write a hell of headline!<br /><br />And I'd like to nominate Gene Kelly for the next stamp. If Kirk was big enough to get one, Gene certainly does!Martin Turnbullhttp://www.martinturnbull.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22615056.post-47057133471452970942011-09-27T16:01:01.647-04:002011-09-27T16:01:01.647-04:00I checked the list.

Robert Duvall would make an excellent addition - he's been in the industry for a long time. Definitely a living legend.<br /><br />I just discovered that the <a href="http://www.blogger.com/%3Cbr%3Ehttp://about.usps.com/postal-bulletin/2011/pb22307/html/info_009.htm" rel="nofollow">Gregory Peck (as Atticus Finch) stamp</a> was released this year. They seem to be going for not only the most recognizable face, but also the most recognizable character. For instance, the Bette Davis stamp shows her in a scene from All About Eve.<br /><br />If the USPS goes out of business, I'd better get these stamps before they are gone.JavaBeanRushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05653117187583244224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22615056.post-50089384952821013642011-09-27T14:44:53.136-04:002011-09-27T14:44:53.136-04:00Your title made me really laugh after I read what ...Your title made me really laugh after I read what your post was about! Good touch! Douglas is a great choice for living great actors. I would pick Errol Flynn as Robin Hood for a stamp, if it hasn't been already -- forgot to look before I started this comment. As for another living actor, the great Robert Duvall definitely deserves a corner of the envelope. Fun idea for a post, Java!ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.com
