Curiosidades
The "steel that floats" has the "Circle Bar W" logo of the "Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company" (original name of the company). The metal was called "cobalt steel", and it could be highly magnetized; this allowed a bar to "float" above another bar whose magnetic poles were oriented in the opposite direction.

Citas
Ripley's Visitor: They say this room is the clearinghouse for the strange information that you gather, Mr. Ripley.
Robert L. Ripley: Yes; this is the Believe It or Not hall of curiosities. I've collected strange things from all over the world here.

Iron Maidens And Rolling Tires

A woman shows up in Robert L. Ripley's office, and he has nothing better to do than shows her around his collection of oddities and motion pictures of the same.

Ripley speaks like he is reading his words off a card in a plodding and nasal voice that might make the modern viewer wonder why anyone would wish to hear him go through a list of things that includes rocks that float in water and a man who lives in the wild in Pennsylvania. If so they would reckon without the enormous power of sheer celebrity. Ripley's syndicated newspaper feature had been running since 1918, and was seen by easily a hundred million people daily. Indeed, it is still running. Sheer curiosity would make this a novel way of seeing the hand-drawn feature with a sense of confidence in its claims.
