Toby The Pup: In The Museum

This 1930 cartoon is another example of the early animation weirdness factor.  Not much of a story:  Toby the Pup is a janitor in a museum, and has some fun with the animated artifacts.  Perhaps slighly more interesting than amusing, but worth a watch once.  From the Internet Archive, here is Toby the Pup:  In the Museum.
