A King Features Popeye “Super Duper Market” (1960)
On a scanning trip this past weekend, I brought with me a King Features Popeye to scan for this week’s post.
Book Review: “Bluto, Buster and the Blob!”
Chock full of wonderful stories and interviews, I have to say it’s the most enjoyable book of the year for me so far.
Sequence direction study: “Mr. Bug Goes to Town” (1941)
This week I talk specifically about a sequence from a feature film from a direction standpoint.
35mm Print of “Club Sandwich” (1931)
The cartoon seems to be set in France, but why? I have no idea.
Van Beuren’s “Gypped In Egypt” (1930)
One of my favorites of the early sound era, and I bet if you’re a Van Beuren fan it’s one of your favorites too.
The Weirdest and Hardest to Find Cartoons RULE! — at Least Sometimes!

Pepper the Pup in “Toodle-oo-o” (1931)
One of the oddities produced by John Burton and other members of the former ‘Kinex’ studios, an interesting and ambitious little film.
Cubby Bear in “Love’s Labor Won” (1933)
It’s definitely a Van Beuren sort of day here….
