[78-L] Rudy Vallee rejected for postage stamp

[soundthink at aol.com]

The article states that a person's stature has a lot to do with whether or not they are accepted; thus, only major figures such as Elvis, Bob Hope, and Frank Sinatra make the cut. The only way minor figures are included is if they are parts of a series; which explains how lesser known personages as Theda Bara, Josh White, and the Carter Family have made it.

Does  anyone know of any reason he might have been rejected? (political

One wonders why Kate Smith was skipped over, considering the work she did  
for the War effort.
