I’ve got this toon as an extra on my Wizard of Oz boxed Blu-Ray set. It’s interesting how not all that many people know that The Wizard of Oz dates all the way back to 1900 when the Frank L. Baum novel first came out. Also thanks for that vintage insurance ad, was that Edward Everett Horton’s voice as the narrator in that animated commercial?
I'd never heard of that production company or this cartoon, but I'm well aware of the great Carl Stalling. This may be the earliest cartoon I see that he made music for.
To judge from the website of Thunderbean Animation, they are doing a lot of restoration work on old animation. That in theory is good. But just judging from this one film, they either have no idea what they are doing, or were stoned while doing the color work on this particular movie. At first glimpse I thought it was a colorized b&w animation, but upon looking up the Wiki, I discovered that this actually was the first animated cartoon produced in color (although they did it without a license from Technicolor so it was never released in color). But even without seeing the original, the colors in this can't possibly be true to the original, especially some of the neon blues, greens and reds. They simply didn't have that capability in 1933, or for that matter the aesthetic. It's interesting to see this, but people should at least understand that it isn't a faithful restoration.

Why do they not have commercials that clever nowadays. I have to say I would think about INA insurance or at least listen to them without slamming the door in their face. Jay North could make anything interesting even insurance.
Interesting how the cartoon uses the same device as the movie, where everything turns from monochrome into Technicolor once she lands in Oz.
This looks like Fractured Fairy Tales, early 60's to me.
@@mikedrown2721 Sorry. Commented to soon.

Yes, it's him!
He narrated all the "Fractured Fairy Tales" on the Rocky & Bullwinkle Show.

This is amazing! TYSM for posting! Happiest New Year to you and yours!

So where's the Cowardly Lion?
And the Wicked Witch of the West?
Unfortunately, they don't appear in a cartoon version in 1933.
@@grantcole1898 I guess this is the condensed version.
Why would they cut off the Cowardly Lion?
