Washington: Charlton Heston recently got his own postage stamp that was unveiled at a ceremony at the historic Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.The `Ben Hur` star`s image for the stamp has reportedly been taken from a photo that was shot by his widow, Lydia Clarke Heston.
Ned Vaughn, the founding executive VP of SAG-AFTRA said that the late actor fundamentally personified a dedication to fight for what he valued, no matter where or when he was needed. Michael Levine, the actor`s publicist for 21 years, who launched his effort to put Heston`s image on a stamp, said that it wasn`t easy for the first two years, and it wasn`t popular. Levine added that the American actor was an extraordinary guy, not just an extraordinary actor.
