Tower of Power

Iconic basketball player Wilt Chamberlain will soon be immortalized on two larger-than-usual stamps. The stamps, just over 2 inches tall each, are about a third taller than a typical stamp. 
The stamps will be dedicated Dec. 5 during the halftime of a Philadelphia 76ers home game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Chamberlain played with the 76ers from 1965-1968.

The 7-foot-1-inch center was a trailblazer, setting multiple records. He scored a record-setting 100 points in a single game, won two NBA championships, and was named an NBA all-star 13 times. Chamberlain was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1979.
