Below are pairs of consecutive frames. There are no transitions. It’s one outfit in one frame, and a different one in the next.
10 frames in a tux.
48 frames as an Indian.
44 frames as a tennis player.
32 frames as a prisoner.
98 frames as a football player.
Tex times the action on ones and twos, except for a 13-frame hold when Poochini looks at the football he's holding.
Grant Simmons, Mike Lah and Walt Clinton animated this short, with Rich Hogan providing the story. If any cartoon is to be seen on a theatre screen, it is this one. The perspective is different (and, I think, better) than watching it on a TV or computer.
The cartoon was released on February 9, 1952 but Thad Komorowski has found Avery had begun work on it by September 1949.
