Title: Pre-movie Cartoons...?
Post by: Jeweller on January 24, 2009, 12:22:28 AM
Hi All,

Wondering if anyone can help me find this....  :lookingup:
My mother-in-law was telling us about a short cartoon she saw yeeeaaaarrrs ago, at a cinema before the main feature. Remember back when they used to play cartoons before the movie started?? Anyway, this particular one apparently had a car, which we're pretty sure was a VW beetle (or at least looked like one), that had a baby car that sprouted a first tooth which was a spark plug... I know...sounds hilarious huh :lookingup: but she would really like to see it again..
Does anyone know of any websites that might have links to some of the old before-the-movie cartoons. I'm guessing it would be 50s or 60s. Have been trying Google searches but found nothing so far. It's a long shot I know, but any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers :twirl:

This is Tex Avery (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000813/)'s "One Cab's Family" (1952) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0044996/).

There is a copy on YouTube (http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=-rnjXdj9-LI).  The spark plug moment is at 2:31.
