Swing You Sinners

No this is not a post about the "reverend" Fred Phelps. Nor is this in any way me being preachy. I merely wish to share with you some old-school, 30s cartoons from the Fleischer Bros whom you probably know better as the creators of Betty Boop. Anyway, after a brief discussion of animation with Tom, I looked up the Fleischers and found this video. You can find more information and lots of other cool 30s, 40s and 50s era animation stuff here.

And here's the video. It's tremendously eerie. Rather ironic for such a classical, harmless style of animation. You just never know what's gonna spring to life next.
