That’s got to be an urban myth, right?

Man, that stamp may have been stuck on there accidentally by an elderly owner or such, not wearing their glasses or in control of all their faculties.

What a loss, if true.. I’d offer to open the box just to make sure it was still in there.. :-}

No, it's a real story.

Can you imagine using grandma's $800K stamp to mail an absentee ballot that wasn't even counted.

It may be an urban myth but it was a part of the plot in the movie Brewsters Millions with Richard Pryor and John Candy.
