largest ball of stamps

Just outside Omaha, Nebraska, in Boys Town you can stop by the visitor's center to see the largest ball of stamps. The lacquered, sphere of canceled postage stamps measures 32 inches in diameter, weighs 600 pounds and contains 4,655,000 stamps.

At first I wasn't believer. Then I read the sign a second time. At the top of the sign I noticed a familiar script that read 'Ripley's Believe It or Not.' The little logo tilted the scale towards the ball of stamps and made me a believer. Afterall, if you can't trust in Ripley, then who can you trust.
