The Classic Movie Monsters stamps represent a fortunate
coincidence. At the same time the Postal Service began
to develop the idea, the adult children of three classic
movie-monster actors began campaigning to commemorate
their fathers on stamps. The two paths converged, resulting
in five of the creepiest—and most popular—stamps
of the 1990s. |
