That’s Not All, Folks:

This was the last Warner Bros. cartoon directed by Ben Hardaway until 1938.

What I Like About This One:

A native mowing the grass- which is actually the grass on top of his hut.

A giraffe being used as a traffic signal.

The musical number (despite containing a few gags that are politically incorrect), “With a Love Song in My Heart”, was quite good.

Buddy and the ape teaming up against the little monkey.
