“Valley of the Giants” was a 1938 Warner Bros. release. Apparently the theatre couldn’t book “The Wizard of Oz” but was able to get a print of “Ahs of a Wizard.”
This Porky Pig short was from the Bob Clampett unit. Dick Thomas was Clampett’s background artist, so he was responsible for the settings (the unit was technically part of the Ray Katz studio, which was considered separate from the main Leon Schlesinger studio, certainly for the purpose of union negotiations).
If there were titled porn movies in 1939, "Ahs of a Wizard" sounds like it would be one of their titles (though for that film, the cartoon before probably would have been Porky and his "Son of A..." routine from the '39 Warners blooper reel).
