"Dancing on the Moon" - Fleischer Cartoon Classic 1935

A L O H A !

 Ah, a lazy Island Saturday !

 Once around Diamond Head 

 - that's Diamond Head Light,

 home (the attached house)

to the Grand Poohbah

 of the US Coast Guard

 District

 Look - 

I caught a bird in flight!

(see how the feet 

are extended to land?)

Well, We've 

"Played Outside"

Now let's

REALLY

be kids again! 

 <>[}:{]<>

 When we were young

Saturday morning

was the time

to watch CARTOONS

on the little black & white

TV.

Before Sponge Bob,

or Angry Birds,

a whole other 

wondrous world

was created

by a man

you probably never

heard of:

" Max Fleischer 

(July 19, 1883 – September 11, 1972)

 was an American animator.

 He was a pioneer in the development

 of the animated cartoon

 and served as the head of Fleischer Studios. 

He brought such animated characters as

 Betty Boop, Koko the Clown, Popeye,

 and Superman to the movie screen 

and was responsible for

 a number of technological innovations. "

If you remember Betty Boop

and her pal Bimbo,

if you remember

dancing, singing flowers,

and a clothed animal audience

watching a live show,

you ALREADY have 

the Fleischer bug!

Are there things

 from your own

childhood

that you think about

from time to time?

Is there an old song

that starts playing

 in your head,

as it has for

decades?

Well here's mine - 

BIG TIME!

Thanks to You Tube

nothing is really lost.

So shall we dance?

On the moon?!

I think you'll be glad

if you watch this

technologically

AMAZING

animation from the

1930s
