Time For A Rare Cartoon

Here's a 1942 cartoon, "All Out For V" from Terrytoons.  This World War II-themed film was the New Rochelle, New York-based studio's first Academy Award-nominated cartoon.

In this one, a peaceful forest is upended by a bombing as war is declared.  The forest animals begin going to work to build military equipment, help the war effort,  and then defeat the enemy.

With story by John Foster and music by Philip A. Scheib, this cartoon, released theatrically by 20th Century-Fox, was produced by Paul Terry and directed by Mannie Davis.

Enjoy!
