Thank you! I loved it, I’m not sure of the thinking behind putting a belly button on a snow man though. Actually, many of the animals and fish had belly buttons too, what’s up with that?
I wonder if this was originally black and white? It’s a Mannie Davis cartoon. A bit of an early 30’s vibe to it. Fun stuff. Nothing like turning on the Aurora Borealis to save the day!
I just love old cartoons, and this one is a treasure. Thanks for sharing it! I’ve been reading your blog for a while now and decided it’s high time I tell you how much I love it. Have a happy holiday season!

Most of all, I liked the dancing fish the most.
I hope you’re feeling better.

Gosh, that got pretty scary. Especially those buttocks when he was chasing after the music!
We have a completely different “The Snowman” over here. It always gets me a little teary-eyed!
