Viewing Notes

Sunday afternoon cartoon: not included in the Looney Tunes collection on Tubi so I had to go hunting. Not an easy one to find. Wonder is if it’s because of how the African natives are depicted. Or that they label Africa as “Dark, Darker and Darkest” on the map of the continent which probably seemed fine at the time but terrible optics today.

Anyways, not the spooky or creepy cartoon I was led to believe. Still an interesting Porky Pig cartoon.
