The young Ripley, began his career at the age of 14 when he sold a cartoon to LIFE Magazine. He quickly gained prominence as a sports cartoonist, landing a job at the New York Globe. One day, Ripley drew a series of cartoons featuring unusual sporting events. He gave it the name, “Believe It or Not!” As the cartoon became more and more popular, Ripley began to travel the world seeking out new and unusual things to feature in his cartoon.
