Bureau of Engraving and Printing
- Fort Worth, USA
- Sights › Other
No, those billions of dollars being printed in front of your very eyes are not the work of counterfeiters living on the lam, Bonnie-and-Clyde style, in Texas. You’ve just stumbled upon one of two places in the nation where ‘In God We Trust’ and Ben Franklin’s face are legally printed on oh-so-hard-to-find paper: the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. This US Treasury facility produces that notorious green stuff over which wars are fought, with which engagement rings purchased, narcotics snorted, bets wagered, waiters tipped and babysitters paid. The bureau suggests allowing 30 minutes to clear security, which lets you know this place is the real deal.
