Postmaster General John E. Potter and Hollywood legends Ernest Borgnine, Karl Malden and Gena Rowlands dedicated the new American Filmmaking: Behind the Scenes commemorative stamps on Tuesday at the headquarters of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The stamps became available Wednesday at post offices nationwide.
The American Filmmaking: Behind the Scenes stamps honor the unsung artisans responsible for crafting great American motion pictures. Ten individual stamps salute art direction, cinematography, costume design, directing, film editing, makeup, music, screenwriting, sound and special effects. Producing is highlighted on the selvage of the 10-stamp pane. The Feb. 25 issuance of the stamps was one of many events scheduled during the celebration commemorating the Academy's 75th anniversary.
