To recall, it was last February when PHLPost launched its “Living Legends: Outstanding Filipinos Series 1,” which is the 2nd of a three-group series of stamps in order to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the country’s first issuance of stamps.
Susan Roces was among those chosen for the new stamps, who have proven to be an inspiration in their respective fields.
Along with her are Nora Aunor, Vilma Santos, Gloria Romero, Rosa Rosal; scientists Dr. Baldomero Olivera and Dr. Ernesto O. Domingo; basketball player “El Presidente” Ramon Fernandez; and bowler Olivia “Bong” Coo.
