From 1930, in living black and white, it's Waffles the Cat and Don the Dog starring in "Gypped In Egypt," an Aesop's Sound Fables cartoon produced in New York City by the Van Beuren Corporation and distributed by Pathe (whose US operations would soon be taken over by RKO). In this one, the boys travel to Egypt and get into one big problem after another.
This cartoon, with music by Gene Rodemich, was directed by John Foster and Mannie Davis, both of whom would later be reunited with their old boss Paul Terry at Terrytoons.
