Ah yes, the good old days of swinging cats by their tails and chewing a good brick of tobacco! Seems the 20’s had a very specific type of humour. It’s amazing to think what a “bastard” Mickey was back in the day. Not the sweet, innocent little mouse we see today. Although having said that, try alluding to anything Mickey or Disney and you will see that this mouse will have a swat team of lawyers taking out your knee caps! Mickey “plays” a different tune nowadays!

Still, its good to see the little guy humming his tune in the 20’s!

Its a mouse!!!
p.s. If you are one of Disney’s lawyers reading this, I am…um…expressing myself…um…I have the right to…um…(sigh) can I get a coffee with that summons?

For the die hard fans, more links to the good old classics.
