An Elephant Never Forgets (cartoon, 1935)

[ASTRILDProductions]

I found this on DVD at Walmart on a set called 200 Colossal Cartoons. It has this and a whole slew of other classics :) Way before my time, but I enjoyed these all the same as a child.

CHILDHOOD.... COME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

[AmyLeerae]

Oh dear lord. I remember watching these and they were made well before my time! : D

[MJNSEIFER]

@AmyLeerae Which is why kids of today are likley to know of the shows we watched as kids in additions to what they watch now :) (In fact they're more likley to thanks to the internet).

[TheDrezden42]

I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS FOR YEARS!!! I remember this was on the all-stars cartoon call-out VHS that I used to watch at my Nana's house. The tape died in the end from too much watching but I still remember this SO well!

[Danielkchoi]

Omg it's that old? I still have a vhs of this and it works fine!

[CatWalkthroughs]

@Danielkchoi Same, lol =D

[NexBigThang]

@Danielkchoi I have the VHS at home but I want the DVD. Do you know how to get it?

[Danielkchoi]

@NexBigThang There is none. Only originals exist. If you burn it onto a DVD even for personal use you'll get hunted down and arrested or fined severely. :( I wish the copyright holder would make a dvd form.

[RedemptionIsNow]

@Danielkchoi you can get it on dvd, however it is REALLY rare. I know because i have it

[Alxmir23]

[DisneyDissection]

who was the distributor and director?

this feels like a disney cartoon, but i know it isn't. >.<

[cha5]

@DisneyDissection Fleischer Brothers studios who worked in NYC from the silent era until 1938 when they moved to Florida,

Max and Dave Fleischer were the creative minds behind these toons and created among other characters KoKo The Clown, Betty Boop, and brought Elsie Segar's character Popeye The Sailor to the silver screen in 1933.

[FlyingAero]

I have this on vhs

[DeadRabbitSaint]

When I was a kid I had this on a VHS along with Foghorn Leghorn in "Crowing Pains" and "Sioux Me" and "Cartune Portrait". Mr Mules memory chords: "But teacher Im a total ass. I simply cant remember."

[Scapscrapingbmx]

3:40 to 3:41 the gorilla sound like he says fuck this while singing the abcs

[zay5707]

[PlaysPrettyForBaby3]

[Bloodbirdy]

what is it the elephant and hippo sings during their turn of the opening song? I can't make out their lyrics.

[DeadRabbitSaint]

@Bloodbirdy

Ruggle dildidia van tveet tveet. Its Gaelic roughly. "Walking as i sing my song."

[Flame991]

[UncleRed1234567]

[cyberyanmar]

we could find it only as bootlegs around here

[darkcylander]

I wish school was only six minutes like it is here.

[RJRanke]

This was one cartoon from my childhood that I have never forgotten.

When I first saw it I was real little and hadn't gone to school yet.:-)

[AbbeyRoad52]

Hey Steve, did you have this cartoon on a compilation VHS tape with Foghorn Leghorn, Woody Woodpecker,etc.? It's a yellow box. I have that tape with this cartoon on it lol.

[Krishwa86]

@AbbeyRoad52 LOL!!! I used to have that exact same VHS tape! Used to be my favourite

[AbbeyRoad52]

@Krishwa86
