I have been trying to find this cartoon for years. Used to watch it as a child cause my grandma had dozens of old cartoon VHS and this was on one of them. So glad I can watch it again
Love love love this cartoon! My mom bought my kids a cartoon DVD out of the dollar bin and this was on it! I haven't been able to get it out of my head for years now - at least 4 years! I love it!
I've been looking for this for ages! I remember watching this on TV when I was a kid in the 60's. I always loved the animation and that little song. Thank you for posting!
Recuerdo ver este corto en un dvd de Superman contra la momia de toon factory con doblaje en español e Pero no lo encontré pero me alegro de volver a ver este corto después de bastantes años en ese dvd asta recuerdo que tenía otras canciones pero cambian como 2 creo
Yes, as 'atzawacki' has stated, this WAS a segment of the 1956-'57 "BOING BOING SHOW" on CBS' Sunday afternoon schedule (originally telecast in black and white).
I've been looking for this for a while now. It suddenly hit me to stop searching up the song and look up the cartoon which I remembered was about a boy with an invisible mustache. So glad to have been able to find this.

I remember watching this in a documentary. So glad to finally find it again after all these years. I'm 19 BTW, who said a teen can't be mature too? X'D
Rare? I assume it's rare because UPA only produced one "The Invisible Mustache of Raoul Dufy" cartoon. Then again, pretty much all cartoons are rare, then.
It's rare because this is the only place to find it and it cannot be found in restored quality, it's a made for tv cartoon which along with the rest of the Gerald Mcboing boing show has never been on DVD
The Gerald McBoing Boing Show had a multitude of talented artists and directors. Of course, UPA was known for scorning humor. Nevertheless, supervising director Bobe Cannon hired former UPA writer Bill Scott as an associate producer to help add humor to the show. Scott also served as dialogue director for the series. When Scott later teamed up with Jay Ward, not only did he bring along some of the designers and directors to Ward's studio, but also some of the actors who put in time for this series. For instance, the "Favorite Painters" series was narrated by Hans Conried, who would later play, among other Ward roles, Snidley Whiplash on the "Dudley Do-Right" segments by Ward.

Huh, funny that a kid from the 60's and a teen from the 2000's (1999) found the same entertainment from this! Loved this stuff when I was younger. ^^
Yeah you rock, I love UPA. I love that song he sings, it's dying for a Pogo-esque remix. You all do know Pogo don't you? :)

Wonderful animation! Informative, poignant, marvelous art style... and the magnificent voice of Hans Conried narrates. Thanks for posting!
Animation by Faith and John Hubley, 1959.
Very cool and graceful, I didn't even know this UPA cartoon so far; so, thanks a million for posting!

It is rare because you can't find it anywhere else… Can you?
