The opening scene IS in "3-D", 'Pygar'. Max and his animation crew built a "live" tabletop background, placing the animation in front of it. He produced several cartoons using this "stereoptical" process {as noted under the Paramount logo; Fleischer eventually did receive a patent for it} from 1934 through 1938...but only in brief scenes.
Originally released in July 1935, and filmed in "two-strip" Technicolor [only Walt Disney had the exclusive rights to use "three-strip" Technicolor for his cartoons at the time]. The score is arranged and conducted by Sammy Timberg. Mae Questel is one of the female animal voices...
The Fleischers are the best, so creative!

If they can 3Dize "Nightmare Before Christmas", why can't someone 3Dize this? It's a natural!
