Out Of The Inkwell - East Side West Side

Max Fleischer's Out Of The Inkwell, Produced by Hal Seeger.
In 1962, Hal Seeger produced and syndicated 100 new Out of the Inkwell cartoons, based on the Koko the Clown character, originally created by Fleischer Studios.

Those singers remind me of at least one of the groups that made jingles for radio stations through the 1950s and '60s. Guess they were available!

I've been searching for this for decades. Thanks for posting this, David!

I too have been searching for tv Koko cartoons for decades. I have a few on 16mm film, but my projector died. I love all the Hal Seegar cartoons!

I loved the intro

[@richardranke3158]

This has to be the earliest episode in this series. "Uncle Max," was more active than in later episodes...and there was a Bouncing Ball Sing-Along.

This was far more fluid than the Koko The Clown cartoons I remember as a small boy in the late 60s, but there is a sweetness to this episode. The 1960s version of Koko the Clown was the earliest cartoon I remember seeing on television and I was quite fond of them as a boy, but although I don't remember this one, it's very well done even without the nostalgia.

We need to see Out of the inkwell of 60s, I really enjoy this stuff

I've heard about this pilot, along with Max Fleischer appearing in it, but I've never seen it until now.

[@unitedfilmationsinc4385]

the intro is just…. **error** it’s just so smooth but yet so calm and modernism that can make you like this is a vivzepop experiment.

[@bobjersey]

🆗

[@jb20092009]

It’s a Screen Songs cartoon featuring Koko The Clown.

So we've found... 3, Out of the... 100 New "Out Of The Inkwell" shorts. Get on that, People! 😠

[@gunier.j.kintgenanimations]

UPDATE: After re-wtching this cartoon, It seems to me like Max Fleiscer was reliving his glory days in this episode. It feels a lot like the original 20's shorts, Plus the use of the bouncing ball sing-a-long & the rotograph, both of which are HIS inventions. Now, It has a sad aura to it, at least to me. This seems like his last hurrah, knowing he would die of arterial sclerosis of the brain in 1972. Also, this is the only episode of the reboot he appeared in, as he became too ill to act for it. Really, the story of Max is a rather sad one.

[@Klook6950Extras]

@@gunier.j.kintgenanimationsActually this is the pilot

[@gunier.j.kintgenanimations]

@@Klook6950Extras It's also the only one Max Fleischer acted in, he got too sick to act for any more after this. But the point still stands; Most of the actual show is lost.

[@BarrCode674]

Basically a Koko Song Car-tune.

[@jayminyoel7911]

Why is the opening actually kind of beautiful

[@gregorkrause]

didn't know there was a 60's #outoftheinkwellseries.

[@hectormanuel8360]

if we had this in hd

[@manidig]

Why does the copyright say 1993? (MCM) 1900 (XC) 10 in front of 100- which is 90 (III) 3. Kind of ironic as I learned Roman numeral dates watching the old Popeye cartoons Fleischer did in the 30s.

[@jsl151850b]

5:54 That's not how Roman Numerals work.
MCM (1900) LX (60) III (3)

[@CaptainFabulous84]

That was actually really cute! And it's confirmed, Koko is gay! 🤣🤣🤣
