The book "The Cockroach Hall of Fame and 101 Other Off-the-Wall Museums"
states that there are 17 Ripleys "Odditoriums" in existence.  The address
for the San Francisco location (the only one given in the book) is

Ripley's Beleive It or Not! Museum(s)
175 Jefferson Street
San Francisco, CA 94113
Phone: (415) 771-6188
  Fax: (415) 771-1246

Location: At Fisherman's Wharf
Hours: Seven days a week, hours vary.

Apparently they are are adding more museums every year and there are a few
locations around the world as well (doesn't say where though).

BTW, you can thank Dawn Scher Thomae, Anthropology Collections Manager at
the Milwaukee Public Museum for this info.  For Christmas, she showered
her NAGPRA assistants with gifts (the "Cockroach" book being mine).

And now that I've established Dawn's good hearted nature to the MUSEUM-L
community, I'd like to take this opportunity to humbly request a
raise.....JUST KIDDING DAWN!
