Being a Fleischer cartoon, something has to sprout a face, or arms and legs. In this one, the dog’s nose gets caught in the slide-down door of the window. Never fear. It grows arms and legs and rescues itself, presumably returning to the dachshund.
The cartoon's credited animators are Grim Natwick and Ted Sears (see comments for more).
Yeah, I know, Betty Boop. But my favourite character is the dancing roast chicken.

ReplyDeleteGrim Natwick and Ted Sears, actually. But the featured scene, and kitchen scenes abutting it, are by Seymour Kneitel.
And you're not the only one who finds other things in this cartoon more appealing than Betty's appearance.
Thanks, Zack. I don't what I was thinking, other than I likely was watching several Fleischer cartoons before posting this.
DeleteThere's lots to enjoy in these early sound Talkartoons.
A neat thing somewhere around this scene there's a board with Hebrew lettering on it; really drives home that Fleischer was out of New York and not California
