Think About Your Safety in the Morn-ning

If you ever wanted to see something with Mother Goose characters using Streamline Moderne transportation, Once Upon a Time might be the cartoon for you. We caught this strange yet charming short on a budget DVD set called 150 Cartoon Classics. It was commissioned as a driving safety awareness campaign by Metropolitan Life Insurance in 1936, long before the company had Snoopy as their spokesdog.

    Oh wow… yeah… my bf has this on some obscure collectors’ dvd,
    we watched it a few years ago and I remember it took months to
    get that song out of my head. Now here it is again. Ack! Still, a cute
    cartoon.
