MR. ELEPHANT GOES TO TOWN-Color Rhapsody (Screen Gems/Columbia-1940)





From 1940, here's "Mr. Elephant Goes To Town," part of Columbia Pictures' Color Rhapsody series, in which a circus elephant gets drunk on "cold elixir" before he befriends a pink elephant.  Our hero is in no shape when the ringmaster finds him.



With animation by Sid Marcus and music by Joe De Nat, this cartoon, made by the Screen Gems cartoon studio in Hollywood and shown with the original main titles, was directed by Art Davis.
