Tex Smears the Cat

The starving bum cat who wants to eat a puny canary (“Well, I’ve been sick”) realises he saw something on the label of a bottle of Garden Jumbo Gro. He grabs the bottle. Here’s a type of a smear drawing that I don’t recall seeing in an Avery cartoon at MGM.



This, of course, is from one of Avery’s masterpieces, King-Size Canary (released in 1947). Bob Bentley, Ray Abrams and Walt Clinton are the credited animators.
