Endearing
Thid cartoon brings back some nice early gradeschool memories, of reruns of "The Woody Woodpecker Show". Andy's exclamation, "Well, whaddaya know...a baby pelican!" still rings cheerily in my ears. And my heart always broke for that poor mama pelican, stuck down at the bottom of the ocean trapped with an anchor in her beak.
This was a happy period for the Lantz studio; Lantz always used the best Hollywood talent he could. He hired director Dick Lundy and animator Ed Love, both from the Disney studio, shortly before this time. Lantz always kept an eye to his budgets--he was forced to close his studio once about 1952. There's nothing cheap about the present cartoon, however.
