Synopsis by Tracie Cooper
This joint production from the United States Library of Congress and the Smithsonian Institution has compiled several hallmarks of early American animated features. Among the titles explored are Fun in a Bakery Shop, a short film from Tony Sarg, several excerpts from animator Winsor McCay's creations, a handful of the popular Krazy Kat cartoons, and King Kong director Willis O'Brien's The Dinosaur and the Missing Link.
