Attended the 2013 New York International Auto Show yesterday with some friends. Got a lot of nice compliments from the showroom staff. One said she thought I came out of a time warp, now I wish I asked her what year it was :p
Olive Oyl had a few different voices in the first few cartoons, but Mae Questel and Margie Hines were the two main voices. Margie was Olive in the cartoons from 1938-1943, because Mae refused to move with the Fleischer's to Miami, only to voice her again when Paramount fired the Fleischer...
Indeed one of the best early Popeye cartoons. "Nix on Hypnotricks" (1940) used the sleepwalking Olive Oyle theme again, but this time she was hypnotized. The plot of both cartoons would be reused in the 1949 cartoon "A Balmy Swami". "Mess Production" (1945) also had Olive Oyl sleepwalking...

I wish I could've gotten some of my vintage stuff from my grandpa's closet, he was a well dressed gentleman to the end, but my family was the type that didn't keep ANYTHING. If something got old and worn or was looking passe and old fashioned they normally threw it out or gave it away to another...
Technology advances so fast these days that anything computerized becomes "vintage" within less than a decade I've noticed. The phones now especially, since before a cellular phone was used for the purpose of making calls whereas now it multi-tasks as a phone, camera, radio, television and PC. I...
"She Done Him Right" (1933). A typical of the period 1890's nostalgia spoof cartoon, featuring some of Tex Avery's earliest work. The animation gets a little stiff and floaty in a few places but it's a very polished cartoon for the time.
