Greta Garbo - Second of 5 postings

A bit of Garbo trivia. Greta is pictured on a 37¢ USA commemorative postage stamp issued September 23, 2005, five days after her 100th birthday. On the same day, Sweden issued a 10kr stamp with the same design. The likeness on the stamps was based on a photograph taken during the filming of As You Desire Me(1932).
