One of my favourite gags in Tex Avery’s The Three Little Pups is how a hand puppet of a cat being worn by the southern wolf takes on a life of its own when it sees a mouse (a wind-up variety let loose by Droopy).
Then the “cat” sees a dog.
Heck Allen insisted he did very little to obtain a story credit on Avery’s cartoons but we’ll mention him here nonetheless. If nothing else, he encouraged Avery to spew forth with his nutty humour.
I don't think Vera Ohman got nearly as stylised at Hanna-Barbera as she did in this cartoon, though I can think of some fences that come close (by other artists).
Love the backgrounds!
