by Ripley Publishing
In November 2018, Ripley Publishing released the "Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! 100 Year," a 256-page book featuring the history of Robert Ripley and his company, as well as showcasing some of the the odd facts from around the world.
From its inception in 1918 and the days of Robert Ripley’s travels and broadcasts to the creation of the first BION and the company’s proud publishing history through the years after Ripley’s death to the incredible collections and the expansion into a world-class attractions company, fans and friends of the brand will be inspired, awed, and amazed. This book is a spectacular artifact of an American icon that people will want to make a part of their own collection and enjoy again and again.
Where To Purchase?
Wow! This is a massive book with a beautiful dust jacket. It stars out with an introduction by Jim Davis, the creator of Garfield. (FYI: I'm a big Garfield fan!).
The book itself is split up into seven sections:
Overall, Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! 100 Year is a nifty book to own for any collector. It's completely different than the Ripley annuals and it mostly focuses on Robert Ripley and the history of the "Believe It Or Not!" company with many articles and many, many photos. It would make a great gift this holiday season!
