Background artists went uncredited in 1933, so I leave it to Iwerks studio experts to determine who was responsible for the paintings behind the action.
Gas-filled Willie ascends into outer space, passing an annoyed moon, a bike race on Saturn (due to its rings being like an oval track), and various stars and planets to an identified planet.





Some interiors.





Willie survived less than another year. MGM dumped the Iwerks cartoons in favour of Bosko and others from the Harman-Ising studio.
