For some reason, before Ted Turner acquired the MGM library, the pre-47 MGM cartoon library they had included this cartoon, but minus this scene -- it simply started with the shot of the mansion before the fade to Lenny in his room (the cut was obvious, but I was assuming it was due to some sort of blackface gag, and was surprised when the offending part turned out to be against rich-but-ugly dowagers).
Screwball Squirrel was my number one favorite cartoon character from the pre-tv era. o character -Bugs included-epitomized cartoon mayhem like him, before or since.
