Anyone ever stop to think that this cartoon was for the pure enjoyment for adults and not so much directed for children? This cartoon was and perhaps, maybe to share some history and to encourage the children of that era to participate covert operations and espionage...lol Cape Banana peal..aka: Cape Canaveral...This is a humoristic cartoon for the government...
I never noticed before that the Skipper on Gilligan's Island seemed to resemble Captain Huffenpuff, a chubby jolly captain of a tiny ship with a little buddy on board! LOL.
Bigg, Paul Frees was hard to get (as witness here, and the few times Warner Brothers sued him, like "The Incredible Mister Limpet"), due to his legendary above-scale fee.
I used to watch these with my dad too fitzington, he used to do imitations of Dishonest John and we would laugh so hard. I didn't realize then how political these were. He also did a great imitation of Oil Can Harry from Mighty Mouse.
I used to watch these cartoons with my dad when I was a kid. He knew who all of the cartoon voices were (Stan Freberg,Daws Butler, June Foray, etc.) and we would both laugh our asses off, for different reasons but it was a great way to spend time with the old man. I was such a big fan someone gave me a beany copter for my 11th birthday. I wish I had it now.
They also had a character called Graham Cracker and another that was a little spaceman in his rickity-wrackity rocket ship. I wonder if anyone has a video clip of them?
Paul Frees also does narration. He also worked for Clampett's former studio WB on "The Incredible Mr.Limpet", as Crusty, and a few offscreen voices.I think he did part of the narration (with Frank Graham) to that offbeat Friz Freleng Elmer Fudd cartoon of 1948, "Each Dawn I Crow".
Paul Frees is the "special guest voice" (as "Little Ace") here, with regulars Irv Shoemaker, Jim MacGeorge and Walker Edminston. Clampett's puns are atrocious, but funny!!
Ahh, innocence. I weep for you.

Dear WYTZOX,"Capt.Huffenpuff"looks like "Skipper Jonas Grumby"from "Gilligan's Island"? Come On!? He doesn't look anything like"The Skipper".

@WytZox1 I thought the animated "Beany and Cecil" cartoons were filmed in 1962 and 1963; "Gilligan's Island" premiered in 1964.

@altfactor -- You're correct! Perhaps Alan Hale Jr. based his character on Captain Huffenpuff, ya think?

Along with Bullwinkle, Beany & Cecil were the best cartoons of the early 60's. Just wonderful cartoons..
