Musical Spaghetti

Pluto hasn’t been invented yet, so Mickey pulls out the teeth of his 1929 pooch and opens a can of spaghetti in Mickey’s Choo Choo. Carl Stalling plays “I’ve Been Workin’ on the Railroad” in the background.



Mickey then plays “Humoresque” on the spaghetti like a harp (Disney turns from public domain standards to public domain classics) before it slaps him in the face. No, he doesn’t share the spaghetti with the dog.



Ub Iwerks gets a “by” credit; I imagine he did the scene with the train belching after dinner.
