Great collection of ripley’s believe it or not comic strips! (

)

Abrahamray | Feb 11, 2018 |

This particular edition (which is a reprint of an earlier, 1962, work) seems to have fewer of the suspend-disbelief entries that some of the later series have. Also noteworthy is that this volume has quite a few family crest and city-seal entries. Better than the average run of Ripley. (
