Last chance before these go to ebay. Prices reduced!
1937 SPEAKING OF THE WEATHER: Famous Hollywood celebrity caricatures come to life from magazine covers in a neighborhood drugstore magazine rack late at night. This was Frank Tashlin's first color short, and the first of his trilogy of book-come-to-life cartoons. Two Zulu sequences frequently edited for television showings are present in this B&W print.
SOLD! 1944 THE STUPID CUPID: Elmer Fudd as Cupid tortures Daffy Duck. Includes the frequently deleted scene of the cat who shoots himself in the head nine times after falling in love with a dog. Nice color.
SOLD! 1946 FAIR AND WORM-ER: Chuck Jones' ultimate chase film. Each character is chased, in turn, by the next: a worm chases an apple, a bird chases the worm, a cat chases the bird, a dog chases the cat, a dog-catcher chases the dog, the dog-catcher's wife chases the dog-catcher, a mouse chases the dog-catcher's wife; with occasional interruptions by a Pepe LePew-like skunk. The color on this is very nice. On a plastic 1200' reel.
1946 OF THEE I STING: World War 2 "Movietone"-style spoof narration in this tale of a batallion of mosquitos who train to launch an attack on a man with a fly swatter. Very nice color. On a plastic 1200' reel.
$20 EACH (includes free media mail shipping in the US; otherwise shipping is extra).
Thanks for looking!
