This wheel is in fair shape. You can see that I had to insert a brad on this one. Someone must have gotten a lot of use out of this wheel, although I can't imagine why. I don't find it terribly interesting. I've always found Ripley's to be a bit tawdry. Plus most of it is totally believable. George Washington was the first American millionaire? Big deal.
This is wheel is about 9.5 inches. It was produced in the early 30s by Disk-O-Knowledge, Inc. It should come as no surprise to you that my favorite part of the wheel is the box on the back that directs doubters to send off for supporting evidence. And my favorite part of the box is, of course, the address: the Believe It or Not Department! (Hang on a minute! Tri-State Rock is in three states? All at the same time? That's crazy!)
