Sammy Singer, the Ed Wood of Animation

Sam Singer went on to do several cartoon series:

"Pow-Wow, The Little Indian Boy"

"Bucky & Pepito"

"Courageous Cat" [as TeleFeatures-Trans Artists]

"Sinbad Jr."[with AIP],taken over by Hanna-Barbera

[Broadway789]

My late dad told me he drew Paddy the Pelican, perhaps after Sam Singer passed away?

[Broadway789]

My dad told me he used to draw Paddy the Pelican...maybe after Sam Singer passed away? This was in the early 50s in Chicago.

Sad thing is Paddy was from Limivady and the son of a Protestant butcher. Shame once he got on the box in American he was type cast. His da played the lambeg. Shame.

Terrible.

the theme song is catchy

[MrBertstown]

I could see someone on here overdubbing these cartoons and maki them cuss like sailors.

Goddamnit this sucks

For a time, "PADDY" was seen on ABC's East Coast and Midwest networks as a weekday afternoon series from Chicago in 1950. Perhaps the producers of the series were aiming for a syndicated cartoon version in 1954, in partnership with Sam Singer. It might have worked....

A cartoon junkie's FEVER DREAM!

Boy, this is odd..the music is eerie..the Sinbad guy's early work. He had been at Disney. minimalist animation at its best.
