From the always feverishly cartoon mind of Charley Bowers comes one of his few sound films, a burlesque of the Ripley's Believe It Or Not cartoon strip -- Ripley also appeared in a couple of series of movies doing his drawings.
But the point of this review is to tell you about Charley Bowers, who led a weird life and wound up in the movies, first directing Mutt & Jeff cartoons and then starring in some stop-motion films towards the end of the silent era in which weird and weirder things happened. Then he disappeared, raising his head up two or three times for movies like this one and WILD OYSTERS in 1940.
The three subjects in this short concern circus peanuts, autos that lay eggs or perhaps vice versa and a boiled lobster. Has to be seen to be be believed, and even then you don't.
