Directed by Tex Avery
Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
A dopey Pilgrim goes hunting a turkey who speaks in a Jimmy Durante impersonation and runs the local black market. War and rationing gags abound (Pilgrims line up behind a sign reading “Ye Cigarettes Today”), as well as a running gag featuring a bear wearing an “Eat at Joe’s” sandwich sign. The turkey harnesses the power of gags to save himself.

Viewing Notes
Sunday morning cartoon: Thanksgiving theme with a pilgrim hunting a turkey for the big day. Plays a lot like Bugs and Elmer Fudd.
