They were • ERROL FLYNN (1933) on the $1.00 stamp • CLARK GABLE (1935) on the $2.10 value • MARLON BRANDO (1962) on the $2.80 stamp, and • MEL GIBSON (the 1984 film was titled "The Bounty") appeared on the $3.00 value. The stamps all feature an image of Fletcher Christian in the top right corner. Each stamp shows each actor (in the role of Christian) to the left of a scene from that particular film. Fletcher was born at the family home, "Moorland Close", in Cumbria, England in 1764. In 1787, he was appointed "Master's Mate" on the "Bounty", his second voyage under Captain Bligh.
