A blog reviewing all the available American animated cartoons of 1939, in approximately release order (or reverse order from the perspective of someone reading the blog after it is done).
Go up a few years and the Lantz studio still didn't like putting noses on their realistically-drawn "hot" Middle Eastern women (see "Abu-Ben Boogie" for an example). Some of the drawings have a bit more of a Fleisheresque look to them than the Lantz house style, though the black characters look like something from the "Lil Eightball" or the early "Swing Symphonies" model sheets.
