Hello my friends. I assume many of you who read my blog are like me, fans of early 1930's cartoons. They have a style all their own that is completely separate from anything that came before or anything since. Even in their crudest incarnations there was imagination and sheer embracing of being a cartoon, that I simply love about these films. Some of my first introductions to this period of cartoon history were the Walter Lantz cartoons and I still have a fondness for those films today. This following page from a 1933 issue of Universal Weekly celebrates the Walter Lantz Studio's two main cartoon stars Oswald the Lucky Rabbit and Pooch the Pup.
