Its one of those great products of the past that's always good for a laugh in shorts or cartoons, just as is alum--which according to many shorts will shrink anything including one's mouth..Alum is still available too!COOPnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-31002384874306318412017-04-06T23:54:40.938-07:002017-04-06T23:54:40.938-07:00Castor oil was a laxative, given (usually to child...Castor oil was a laxative, given (usually to children) for stomachaches and reviled for its taste. I recall a couple of Our Gang comedies with castor oil gags. But here, the animators succeeded in making it look disgusting.rnigmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01370724366178429029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-42028452194256127842017-04-06T12:12:01.288-07:002017-04-06T12:12:01.288-07:00Haven't seen this in a while, but I'm pret...Haven't seen this in a while, but I'm pretty sure this sequence is Ray Patterson.stinky fitzwizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07262197070416366167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-70337617649303023712017-04-06T11:25:42.105-07:002017-04-06T11:25:42.105-07:00This cartoon also is the debut for Tom's '...This cartoon also is the debut for Tom's 'pals' -- Butch and the other unnamed cats who would continue to appear all the way to the CinemaScope releases in the mid-50s. <br /><br />(And Joe Barbera must have finally gotten fed up with all the people on the MGM lot telling him how much he beat up that cat (using a phrase described far more floridly in Joe Adamson's book on Tex Avery) a little before the widescreen shorts arrived, because by the mid-1950s Tom was getting off a lot better and Jerry a lot worse on average at the end of the cartoons.
