Robert Riley heads off to Africa, where he shows us unveiled Tuareg women, a building built to house a hair from Mohammed's beard, and other unlikely oddities in the first entry in his second series of shorts from Vitaphone.
Ripley began as a sports cartoonist. He published his first BELIEVE IT OR NOT cartoon on 18 December, 1918, and it became a regular weekly feature. Although Ripley died in 1949 at the age of 59, his series remains in syndication to the current day under the authorship of Kieran Castaño.
In this short, Ripley narrates with a flat voice in a dogged manner that seems boring to me, but I'm sure contemporary audiences must have enjoyed it.
