This is an early Fleischer cartoon from 1930 starring Bimbo and featuring the character who would soon become Betty Boop.

  • i dont understand. howd she go from dog to human?

  • @NymphadoraBeeWolf Do you notice how her boyfriend (Bimbo) in this cartoon is a dog? She was started as an unnamed canine girlfriend for Bimbo. Over time they decided that she'd work better as a human and they gradually morphed her design into that.

  • Impressive animation for the year this was made. First time I see Betty's prototype.

  • No one knew how to end a cartoon like the Fleischers.

  • Looks like Bimbo is giving Bill the finger at 1:40.

  • @NymphadoraBeeWolf Cont

    She still had dog ears at this point although they were shrinking.

    The first Fleischer toon that had her as a 100% human was 'Mask-a-Raid' (1931)

    her dog ears had become ear rings by this time.

  • @NymphadoraBeeWolf She started getting more human features in the Fleischer toon 'Mysterious Mose' (1930) And I think either 'Bimbo's Initiation' or 'Silly Scandals' whichever came out first) (1931) was the first BB toon with something close to the recognizable Betty Boop head with no trace of dog features although she still had massive dog ears.

    I believe 'Bimbo's Express' (1930) was the first one with the 100% traditional Betty Boop head as we know it,
