Mike added a lot of his trademark off-the-wall gags to standard stories (PHIAWATHA'S RABBIT HUNT, NOTES TO YOU) and spot-gag cartoons (ALOHA HOOEY, FONEY FABLES).

So you have characters who at times look like they could have come from a 1939 Merrie Melodie (or for Friz, from a '38 MGM cartoon), but moving in key scenes about as quickly as a MM from 1943 or later.J Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15175515543694122729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-36717112122526812722012-09-04T09:52:56.951-07:002012-09-04T09:52:56.951-07:00The ink and paint department couldn't be bothe...The ink and paint department couldn't be bothered to color the faces properly.Zartok-35https://www.blogger.com/profile/00449976580118722879noreply@blogger.com
