How much is the value for a James Dean 32 cent stamp?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer:Marilyn Monroe (Scott # 2967) 1995 32 cent stamp

New = 85 cents

Used = 20 cents

Pane of 20 (sheet) = $25

Sheet of 120 (6 panes) = $150

Cross gutter block of 8 = $55

Block of 8 with vertical gutter = $45

Horiz. pair with vert. gutter =$7.50

Vert. pair with horiz. gutter = $4

2967a. Imperf. pair = $400

2967a. Pane of 20, imperf. = $5,000

(Scott Specialized Catalog of US Stamps 2011, page 221)

Note; The above values are catalog values and are not what dealers will buy the stamp/s for. Normally dealers will pay 10 to 25% below face value on new (mint) stamps. For the rare 2967a stamps you will probably get from a dealer about 25% of the catalog value.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AnswerI believe you mean Scott #2967 US, which was issued in 1995.

A mint sheet can be purchased for $39-50. If you were to offer it to a dealer, they might pay $13 to $20 for it.

AnswerTo a stamp dealer, 80% of face value. To most people, it's worth the value of the postage, i.e., what you paid for them. To a Marilyn Monroe collector who knows nothing about stamps, you could probably double your money.

Scott Number 2967.

You can purchase one of these for 20 cents used and about 85 cents mint from a dealer. The full sheet of 20 stamps goes for about $25. Dealers typically will purchase stamps at around 25% of the catalog value. Consult a stamp catalog such as Scott's, for a description on how stamps are rated and graded.

What is the correlation between the Levis commercial that has the line Travis you're a year too late and the movie Giant staring James Dean?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Per the creator of the commercial, Mike Salsbury, "Which reminds me. That line about Travis. People ask me all the time what deep significance it held. Even The Wall Street Journal ran a story speculating on its hidden meaning. I will now, however, reveal the answer: It didn’t mean a thing. Nothing at all. It just sounded cool."

When did James Dean say Dream as if you'll live forever Live as if you'll die tomorrow?

Asked by Wiki User

This question is an opinion based question, so i am not sure if you will agree with me but here is my interpretation:

don't put limitations to your dreams, don't pursue something because you believe you won't have enough time. To be more general i think it means Try and make your dreams as big as possible and never stop dreaming.

The second part means live your life to the to the max everyday and try to do everything you can possibly do. take advantage of what life offers you because their are many opportunities, take nothing for granted.

Did James Dean and Marilyn Monroe date?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Marilyn Monroe and James Dean never dated. They never even met each other when they were alive. Monroe was several years older than him. While Dean was starting to establish his career and status in Hollywood, his life ended abruptly. Monroe died several years later as well. They each lead their own lives.

However, both Monroe and Dean are considered icons in Pop Culture.

Both died at very young. They are often depicted in art indicating that their beauty and tragic lives.

Monroe and Dean allegedly met once during the premiere of his debut film East of Eden(1955) and apparently disliked each other over 'Hollywood differences' (she enjoyed the spotlight and he hated it). They would've made an attractive couple though.

What sneakers did James dean wear?

Asked by Wiki User

I have searched and searched for this answer and 1 name keeps popping up, which is Tart Arne. It seems to be 1 brand that he wore. I've seen pictures of him with different pairs and styles but I havent found what those are. I contacted the James Dean Museum here in Fairmount to see if they know the others. The Tart Arne one's that he wore were the Liberty Optical Version, thick black frames. He also wore the same style but in a color called "honey tortoise" which was honey colored with darker stripes through. EDIT- I have also found that he wore Wayfarer style of Ray Bans

Did James dean use drugs?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Some say that he only participated in gay acts to advance his career, but this is somewhat debatable. He most certainly DID participate in several homosexual acts, however, he is most commonly seen as being bisexual, for he was also a ladies' man.

There are reports that he was and there are reports the he was bi-sexual. It depends on who you talk to.

He lived with a man named Rogers Bracket whom he was rumored to have an affair with. He helped Jimmy get into a play which eventually led him into East of Eden.

Jimmy was serious with women as well. Elizabeth Sheridan and Pier Angeli were 2 of the more serious girlfriends.

He once told a fan magazine he wasn't going to live life with one hand tied behind his back when asked about his sexuality. That could have been him trying to get a rise out of the reporter or it could have been the truth.
