This cartoon is a favarite of many Popeye fans, and must be included in any top ten listing of the Sailor's adventures. The cartoons takes place at night time, where Olive is a sleepwalker. She wakes Popeye and Bluto and walks the flagpole outside her window across the tops of the buildings until she is seen walking on a telephone wire. She ends up on a building under constr...uction which has hamburger munching Wimpy as the night watchman.
There is so much to see in this cartoon it is impossible to take it all in on one viewing. Highlights are when all three charactors are "sleepwalking" they reach a point on the girders of the building when it appears they are going to colide into one another. This bit of amination is amazing and beautifuly choriographed.
The best part of the cartoon is the now classic scene of Olive walking from one girder to the next. This shows the Fleischer animators at their zenith. The entire cartoon is timed to the theme song "Did You Ever See A Dream Walking" from the Paramount feature "Sitting Pretty. A must see cartoon, even the colorized version is worth a look see.
ABOUT THE PRINT - This is an original print / virtually mint with no issues / no VS or warpage.
About PRICES & SHIPPING - you can save on shipping charges with media mail rate. Don't pay any attention to bay's stupid posting of "delivery in 4 days". I OFFER SHIPPING in one to four days. What the post office does with it is not in my control. Ebay still hasn't figured it out yet! If you do local pick up, don't use the "pay now" function and let me invoice you minus any shipping costs. Please use PayPal while you still can. Then I can ship right away. Ebay's "managed payment" scam may just cost you, the buyer, some extra waiting time. I don't ship until ebay pays ME first. So please don't blame me. Thanks to eBay's ruthless price-gouging on shipping which they have no part in other than xxmping this "sur tax" on sellers, I am forced to adjust my policies accordingly. So both you (the buyer ) and I, (the seller, who pays ebay their salaries via commissions must subsidize their greed. It's the only wheel in town, friends.
