New U.S. stamps of classic movie stars

The other day I was in the post office and asked the clerk when the new Gregory Peck stamp was coming out. She gave me the "I have no idea" look.  So I went online and found out it'll be available on April 28. You can also pre-order it online from the post office website.

I also asked the same clerk when the new Helen Hayes stamp was coming out, and she looked at my like I was from outer space.  So I went to my trusty computer and found out it'll be available on April 25. You can also pre-order it online from the post office website.

The stamp of the two-time Oscar winning actress features a lovely illustration by Drew Struzan, who has designed countless movie posters over the years. Check out his website sometime and peruse his art.
