As part of their Legends of Hollywood stamp series, the U.S. Postal Service will honor Gary Cooper, the all-amercian leading man from Hollywood’s “Golden Age.”
His stellar career includes such great films as Meet John Doe, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, Beau Geste, Sergeant York, and High Noon.
Buy them quickly or they will be gone! (Because I will buy them all!)

Black & White Intro (short & simple, with a jazzy theme)
