Grace Kelly spent every summer from 1930 to 1950 at her family’s house on the corner of 26th Wesley Avenue. During the 1950s, she was known around the world.
On March 24, 1993, the United States and Monaco issued a stamp honoring Grace Kelly. On the American version she was called Grace Kelly; Princess Grace on the version issued in Monaco. The United States Postal Service advertised “Capture her majesty at your post office today” when it issued the stamp.
