Main Character(s):

None

Summary:

At night, the laundry comes to life. A pair of men’s long johns must save a pair of women’s long johns from a villain’s clothes.

That’s Not All, Folks:

This is the first Merrie Melodie to have an MPAA number.

What I Like About This One:

The opening chorus with the women in the laundry is catchy.

The “Collar Sharpening” and “Button Breaking” departments.

“And then (k)night fell”, which literally shows a knight’s armor falling down.

The phrase “23 Skidoo” being spotted on a desk when the male long johns sings.

Socks acting like hands playing a piano and an accordion, respectively.

The “That’s all folks!” end card where a pair of long johns walks onscreen and a human head pops out to say the ending line.
