It is worth tracking down the TCM doc about the Bray Studios. This is wher Paul Terry, The Fleischers and Walter Lantz got their big breaks. Plus there is a cartoon featuring TAD’s immortal Silk Hat Harry and Judge Rummy
BTW…Pete I saw in Previes that Titan is releasing a fourth volume of Flash Gordon Sundays—the rare Austin Briggs run. Are you in charge of the Restoration again. You did a splendid job with the Fall of Ming!
Funny thing (to me) about the Teddy Bears’ Picnic is that the 1908 instrumental recording I like seems like it’s keyed to the lyrics. For instance, at the point where the words say “at six o’clock…”, a chime strikes six times. Yet the words weren’t added to the tune until decades after the recording.
The rock station I used to listen to once snuck in a chorus of TBP when they had a half minute of spare time. It was the same recording I had (and still have), with “Teddy Bears on Parade” on the flip side.
