The United States Postal Service unveiled its new Paul Newman forever stamp on Friday, Sept. 18, during a ceremony held in the Playhouse Square District in Newman's native Cleveland.

On hand with Colin during the cermony were Clea Newman Soderlund, senior director of special initiatives, SeriousFun Children’s Network and Paul Newman’s daughter; Robert Forrester, president and CEO, Newman’s Own Foundation; Mimi Dane, president and CEO, Flying Horse Farms; Eryn Powell, freshman, Kenyon College and Flying Horse Farms camper; W.
