Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Popeye is determined to buy Olive a bear-skin coat for her birthday, but all furrier G. Geezil can offer him is a knockoff coat made of rabbit. Thus, Popeye purchases a gun and goes bear-hunting in the woods. Unfortunately, the sailor man falls victim to a prankish bear who plays on soft-hearted Popeye's "symphonies" to avoid getting shot, then subjects our hero to a humiliating trouncing. But Popeye ultimately triumphs and gets his bear skin...or does he? This cartoon was partially remade at Warner Bros. as Duck Soup to Nuts, also scripted by Tedd Pierce.
