Ripley’s Believe It or Not Veterans Return for Reunion in San Francisco
A dozen Ripley’s Believe It or Not veterans gathered at the museum in Fisherman’s Wharf to mark 58 years since Robert L. Ripley’s first cartoon. Simon Argevitch of Oakland recalled his 1970 stunt of stuffing cigars in his mouth and bird calls, now limited to six efforts but still sharp. George Dillman of Reading boasted he could break four 1,000 pound ice blocks with his elbow, though no ice was present at the reunion. Prennie Wingo of Los Angeles walked backward across Europe and the U S, while Lena Deeter Bare of Van Nuys demonstrated her signature backward, upside down, or one‑hand forward writing.
