The Accurate Avery Sign

“A bunch of the boys were whooping it up in the Malamute Saloon,” intones narrator Frank Graham at the start of Tex Avery’s The Shooting of Dan McGoo. Cut to a slow pan right of the fighting, drinking and gunfire inside. The camera passes a (misspelled) sign typical in an Avery cartoon as it carries along. It’s on an overlay.
