Pigfish

Yesterday, we talked about Bob Clampett’s “Sour Puss” (1940). Perhaps the oddest visual gag is when Porky tells his cat they’re going to have fish for dinner. Porky then demonstrates by turning himself into a fish. The first seven drawings are consecutive, animated on twos.



Vive Risto and Dave Hoffman get the animation credit, but reader Devon Baxter believes this is Norm McCabe’s work.
