        Robert LeRoy Ripley (December 25, 1890 – May 27, 1949)

Ripley first called his cartoon feature, originally involving sports feats, Champs
and Chumps
, premiering in the New York Globe. He soon began adding items
unrelated to sports, and in October 1919, he changed the title to Believe It or
Not
.
