Grace Kelly - High Noon - Monaco

A few of us were waxing poetically a few days ago on another thread about the 1952 movie (and song) High Noon starring Gary Cooper and Grace Kelly, who later went on to become Princess Grace of Monaco.

Flipping through my covers this morning I came across this one, which movie fans, cover lovers and monarchists might enjoy.

I have one of those but with only 2 stamps.. might be a different issue, mine said 1952, I think.

An all time classic movie
Two classic performers.
One of my favourite movies.

Seems to me that I have a FDC of a partial set in my foreign box and I don't even collect FDCs :(

One of my favourite movies too and in my western movie collection

Grace Kelly made it on to postage stamps. I think Audie Murphy did in the States but thinking of High Noon made me think of Shane. Did Alan Ladd make it on to a postage stamp?

Audie Murphy was reconized for his war record an the Congressional Medal of Honor. The closest for Alan Ladd is below

Litho: Don't you have some fantastic Grace Kelly stamps (Slania if I remember correctly). Can you put them on here for us Grace Kelly fans?

We were in Monaco for a couple of hours in the fall...visited the Cathedral where Princess Grace is buried..had a gelato and back on the bus !!

I really liked Allan Ladd when I was a kid..Veronica Lake as well...but he must have needed money and made some crumby movies at the end of his career !!

Hi there cynical. Sorry to say I don't have the Grace Kelly stamps
you mentioned but here they are lifted/ stolen? from another site.

I always thought of Allan Ladd as a wooden kind of actor but he was
rather good in Shane and in the war movie were he played himself.
Can't remember the name of that one and I'm too lazy to look it up.

Never get tired of seeing those Grace Kelly stamps...

Thanks Litho. The thread was missing something and those two images just make it complete. Me and my buddies would carry potato sacks and search the ditches for empty pop bottles then cash them in and hitch-hike to the next town (Wingham, Ontario) where there was a movie theater. Loved those old movie posters on the outside of the theater. My parents did not find out until many years later that I had been hitch-hiking.

I think Alan Ladd appeared on a Cinderella
from the film Shane, on a similar format to the US
Vitagraph cinderellas produced by Wents of NY and Germany.
very scarce items.

Litho: was it Alan Ladd or Audie Murphy who played himself in a war movie or both? Audie was on a stamp I think?

Audie Murphy did a self portrayal in "To Hell and Back" (1955).
