Fresh young talent were rising up in the animation industry and they wanted to create something funny and zany rather than the Disneyesque musicals that many studios were desperately trying to imitate. Their work is still just as funny and wacky today as it was in the 1930s, giving generations of fans a good belly laugh!" -- cover of container.
