I Love To Singa

Sorry, folks.  I must have been asleep at the controls.  Apparently my cartoon did not post Saturday morning when I clicked "publish," and I did not notice until now.  Better late than never.  Here is a classic cartoon I have not seen in some time.  Directed by Tex Avery when he was still at Warner Bros., it features "Owl Jolson."  From the Internet Archive, here is the 1936 animated short, I Love To Singa.
