The John Wayne stamp, painted by Drew Struzan, is based on a black-and-white publicity still taken for the 1962 film, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. It was officially issued last month at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Calif.

Newday is really late with this "news".
The Stamps have been out for at least 2 weeks.
Wonder when they will announce the winner of the Presidential Debate.....
BTW, I wonder if they know it's President Bush and not President Gore?
