The art on the stamp is inspired
by the 1941 movie "The Maltese Falcon." It depicts Humphrey Bogart
holding the statue of the falcon. Huston's credits also include the Academy
Award nominated films "The Asphalt Jungle" (1950), "Moulin
Rouge" (1952) and "Prizzi's Honor" (1985).
The stamp is part of
a four-stamp Great Film Directors series. The Postal Service announced earlier
this month that John Ford and Frank Capra are other directors depicted in the
series. The remaining director and the date of issue will be announced later.
