I'm nearly 85, have never seen these cartoons; the frivolity makes me laugh at the mostly harmless nature of them. Thanks to the uplpader.
Yeah, you have to be 100+ to remember these from when they were released l😅
Back when cartoons were aimed at adults, not kids. I remember some of the Flip the Frog cartoons when something went wrong, Flip looked at the camera and said "Damn!" Not censored on 1950's TV either.
There’s also a Flip subject where Flip and the horse sing “Hail, Hail, The Gang’s All Here”, with the horse singing “What the hell do we care?”
Flip says "Damn!" after falling down the stairs in "Room Runners" and something similar in at least one other short. "Room Runners" also has its share of near nudity and spicy innuendo...lol ruclips.net/video/PL0ze_tp_dg/видео.html
Cartoons weren’t made for children back then, hence the adult content.
And remember folks, these cartoons were drawn one frame at a time. Probably several thousand for each film reel. Talk about job security
Ahhhhh! The good ole’ days, when cartoonists could do what they wanted.
Except hire non-whites.
Actually, a lot of Disney cartoonists got away with some sneaky stuff.
Not literally.
They can too nowadays. Helluva Boss maybe not a good example but its one of it.
The 20s, and 30s was a weird time for cartoons.
Cannabis and opium were still legal then
They were starting out, that's why.
My mom use to tell me Animaniacs where a bad influence back in the 90's. They where tame compared to old school.
It was a commentary on censorship. The Animaniacs were contsantly trying to bring back that 20s craziness and fun, but got psycho-analyzed, slapped and arrested at every turn. And none of the characters understood the instructions handed down that they needed to be educational. The trio's best attempt was the Wheel of Morality, which randomly assigned a morale to their antics retroactively at the end of the episode. Pretty brilliant I think
I loved watching the Animaniacs with my son, along with Ren & Stimpy. Before he was born, there was the "Twisted Tales of Felix the Cat" which were very reminiscent of these old cartoons from the 30's. I found them on VHS so he got to watch that crazy stuff too.
"Barney" the dinosaur was banned in my house! That crap rots kids brains and insults their intelligence!
Wow, I'm surprised anyone would think that show was a bad influence. I don't mean this in any kind of disrespectful way; I'm just curious: was your mom very religious? Maybe very conservative?
But it’s educational
@@DavidDartley wouldn't conservative be trying to bring those days back? Being "old fashioned" and "non progressive"?
We used to watch these as kids and never thought a thing of it. It just was what it was and nothing more.
Those Pre-Code cartoons had a delicious naughtyness in them.
That's right. Just what I haven't perceived in some cartoons from nowadays. Mostly the ones with toilet humor (eww) included.
DRAG QUEENS , GAY COPS , CROSSDRESSERS , DRINKING BOOZE. AH THOSE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS. L.O.L..
Saigokun. That what made them more beautiful
Vash
This is what goes on in my head when I zone out.
Have to remember the bread & butter theatre goers were adults and the toons reflected that, wasn't until late 40s early 50s the audience became kids a lot of fun pokes in these
What a wild ride! I thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. Thanks for posting this!
Glad you liked it. If you want more, the link to my first Pre-Code: Cartoons is above.
@@michiganjfrog Thanks! Checking it out now. In fact, I'm gonna watch your entire "Pre-code" series! Great stuff! A fascinating time in cinematic history.
Ralph bakshi would have a lot of fun if he was an animated in the pre hays code time era
and so would John Kricfalusi
I appreciate my vintage cartoons pre codes and all lol
This is fun to see.
Wow - I just don't know where you could find this stuff, much less know what you were looking for then cut it together so well.
Thanks so much!
Glad you enjoyed it. Usually when I'm watching a pre-Code, cartoon or otherwise, I'll note anything that is either pre-Code-ish, or, at least, amuses me. I'll then up load the video to my Mac and grab the portion I noted and put it in a timeline in iMovie. When I have enough for a video, I stitch them together. The editing is by far the most fun. Thanks again.
When the walloped the horse for saying the naughty word I cracked up on the spot 😂
what the hell do we care
Cute.
Mae West: the original THICC queen
Queen is a good word since she turned out to be a transvestite in these cartoons
And yet in real life Mae West wasn't a transvestite.
Gustav Meyrink how so
May West did her last movie when she was 84 years old, playing the part of a seductive spy.
@@rasputout7330 Well, back in the 1930s they didn't do implants because the technology didn't exist yet. Here's a photo of Mae from back then -- they're quite real. (Note: aside from being a [retired] computer engineer, I'm also a digital artist and can tell this image hasn't been altered.)

When people ask me why I watch classic cartoons.
Did anyone else catch that dig at Ghandi?
Quite a few younger viewers probably missed it, not having any idea who Gandhi was. It's good to be reminded that the man wasn't universally loved.
Duh.
Sarah Gray what would hillary say " gas station"
Ghandi was topical then.
Yes, I did.
Sex-alcoholics-gays-racism: it’s all in there !! 😂
I could’ve done without the gays
the wayback machine was working over time to find these :))
The two cops at 4:22 remind me of the Blue Meanies from the Beatles' Yellow Submarine
I watched TV in the 1950's and actually remember a few of these. Betty showed her bra and men explicitly lusted after her in quite a few and Flip the Frog said "Damn" in most of them.
Both Betty and Flip are featured in my first pre-Code Cartoons video: ruclips.net/video/aMASremngEI/видео.html
@1950Grendel
Betty Boop Showed Her PANTIES a Number of Times.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Their target public wasn’t really kids, these were made for adults
Betty Boop. The first popular waifu in animation history.
Betty Boop
I had to look that up! :)
yep, and the start of many a motor... lol
Many years ago, I saw a Betty Boop documentary on public television. It showed that even back to her earliest appearances, there was almost always a shot where her hemline rose up her hips, and then they paused that scene at the very moment where the cartoonists drew in a single frame of Betty Boop bush.
You could have used just about anything from "Lady Play Your Mandolin" (1931 Merrie Melodies) in this. The entire cartoon is about drinking and getting drunk. Pre-code cartoons were crazy.
i wonder what these animators would think about how far animation has advanced
Advanced? They haven't advanced, just the opposite!
2D animation peaked in the 30’s and 40’s so they probably saw the best it had to offer
-Cartoon cells were hand drawn then. Now, a computer does the 'work'. No comparison.
@@thomasjewell7728Computer animation is still pretty hard, people who say otherwise are tripping
@@thomasjewell7728And animation is still only 15fps today. It used to be 30 back then.
Prohibition was declared a failure in 1933, the Hays Code came in in 1934. If drinking can't be controlled then it, and other morally questionable activities, can be prevented from being shown on the screen.
Good to see Betty!
Hah - if the Code censors only knew that 80+ years later, this stuff would be considered tame, even banal. We have hentai porn now.
Wth is that?
@@kingjames7273 look it up...
Yeah but that Japanese this is American
Now, hang on, the African women’s bosom were exposed.
This reminds me of my grandparents.
Was that Harvey Weinstien with Betty towards last?
lol
Possibly. And, in fact, probably!!
Yes that would have been Harvy Boopsteen.
Always been run by that kind.
probably a nod to Louis Mayer, notorious head of MGM.
1:53
These are my favorite.
Girl one is just moving with grace and beauty, while her servant follows behind her and gives her modesty,
Girl two is just popping off, she don't gaf if you're attracted to her or not
Girl three is just chilling with the monkeys after a long day
I LOVE PRE-CODE ❣️
Naughty but NOT Raunchy. Love these cartoons. I think I saw Oswald the Lucky Rabbit with Felix the Cat
...a teenager's dress falling down doesn't fit your definition of raunchy?
I was borned in 1958 and I remember this toons in the early 60's
Yeah, same here. I was born in '59, so we grew up in the same era. 👍✌
These wer shown in theaters as part of a program. They were meant for adults, but for years after TV was popular they would show these on very early morning TV cartoons. People weren't PC crazy in the 50s and 60s.
Really? People couldn't even show toilets in bathrooms, had to use twin beds for married couples, couldn't show belly buttons, had strict censorship of language, and lets not even get started on people with differing skin pigmentation interacting. Your idea of "pc" is basically "people won't let me be an asshole without calling me out on it, waaaaaaaa!"
@@hermeticallysealed1 yep. This 100%. The rabid anti-P.C. folk all seem to suffer from Selective Memory Syndrome.
And I thought that political correctness is way out of hand now!
Ah, the Hay codes. Good ol' sin cer ship.
Interestingly, after the code was developed cartoonists still found ways to put homosexual characters into their shorts (and a lot of them weren't judgmental but just were just having fun).
I don't know. Kinda seems like they were "homophobic" jokes then, just as you'd process them as "homophobic" if they were made today.
"Not judgmental but just having fun." So you mean Gay...
Virtue signal noted, 5 years later.
And by fun you mean laughing at them?
A thousand apologies
Twilight zone. "Whats in the box?"
Remember those cartoons, they were the best!
I've always found cartoons from this period kind of creepy.
Me, too.
@@kentuckylady2990 Have you seen kids' Halloween costumes from the same period? They will freak you out!
As a very little kid in the late 1950s, I also was made uneasy by the very earliest sound cartoons that were on TV then, like Bosko. The exaggerated perspective, the tinny voices - too strange, particularly compared to the excellence of the 1940s Warner Bros. cartoons that were on then as well.
@@hebneh Kids' Halloween costumes from that period are even scarier!
That’s the best part!
5:27-Did he-did drop “the ol’ F-bomb?” 🤭😱😂
Sounds Like it
😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
It's a part of history. Comic books also had a lot of racist, sexist, homophobic things in them. It's not something you would see today.
How else were we to learn acceptable behavior while mom took care of the house and dad on a ship some where?. Early TV was the new unpaid babysitter and telecast most all of these.
These are outrageous. Guilty pleasure!
MORE MORE MORE MORE!
Here is the first pre-Code cartoon video I put together. ruclips.net/video/aMASremngEI/видео.html
Just great.
Some things never change
I love rubber hose animation
A coupla wierd scenes there. Some things just don't change - or they DO!
Betty bop rules!
that's Boop.
Bop is right. She went on to become one of the first hipsters.
This is a good reminder that the whole “woke” culture is not a new thing
There was a huge wave of social mores being stretched during the 1920s and 30s too. And back then, much like now, there was a huge conservative reaction to it.
It’s interesting to look at what happened back then and seeing it play out again
Betty boop rules!
Enough to offend everybody today.
I know he didn’t say it, but we all heard that at 5:27 right.
I've been in love with Betty Boop since I was five. She's so feminine.
Betty pretty much stars in my first Pre-Code: Cartoons video: ruclips.net/video/aMASremngEI/видео.html
Was betty boop patterned after a real person?
Boop was originally a dog (a sexy-ish dog), who was going to be Fleischer regular, Bimbo’s companion. She’s basically a caricature of Helen Kane. Kane, herself, imitated the African American singer from the late 20s, Baby Esther [Jones].
BETTY BOOP IS QUITE A FOX.
@@deemueller6470 yea I saw something where she was made after a black woman, Google real bettyboop I think
A bottle of absinthe and a hit of acid please. Thank you
Mae West!
Its thanks to Mae west. Marylyn Monroe,, Jane Mansfield. Lena Turner, Shelley Winters. Elisabeth Taylor, Ann Margaret. Elizabeth Fraiser. Got the their start in the 1st place
all these ladies were beautiful in all their times. Thank to Betty Boop & Mae West. The 1930's was the great place for great 1950's & early 1960's.
@@cockaheuck1534 BETTY BOOP was a SEX SYMBOL almost 20 years before MARILYN MONROE.
Still better than most modern "adult" cartoons
Originally every movie was preceded by cartoons and newsreel. So some were introduced for griwnups
I am old. Back when Howey Doody was the biggest kiddie TV before the Mickey Mouse Club local TV had hours to fill during the day.
So we saw old stuff. Our Gang and Flash Gordon over and over
And racy cartoons. Did I really see Betty Boop swimming without undies? Yes!
These are the cartoons my grandparents would have watched. The world was a different place. And in a 100 years will people look at today's cartoons any less harsh? Probably not.
Great compilation. Boop boop be do. 🙈🙉🙊
I Love these cartoons! The old black and white are the Best! Not only in my Era but also in my grandsons AND Great Grandaughters! They DO NOT SEE ALL THE PROPAGANDA!!! PREJUDICE!!!
Please! Children Learn this Trash from Home/ from parents individuals!
Bring back these cartoons! Our children and grandchildren need the old cartoons! Popeye/Mighty Mouse/ Betty Boop/Mut & Jeff. . .I could go onAND ON!
Parenrs are yoy watching tv with your children? Do you realize how dark the cartoons of today are? Cartoons were meant to humour our children in an adult world! Their entertainment! They are growing up too fast! Unsupervised! 😥 My Mom let us watch them on Saturdaymorning While she put away the groceries! Television was for "Family Entertainment".
Today? There's a television in every room. A break down in communication! In Family Unity!
Bring back the great cartoons if only for a day. Once day out of the week. And Watch. . .and See!❤
A few of those cartoon women were definitely built better than today's models. Betty Boop is THICK, Baby!!! Love it!!!!
I fully agree. They were. When think about. I am into big buxn woman. The real sexy type woman were born in the 1930's. The true birth of sexy babes
Wow, those sure weren't for the kiddies
a total laff riot. thanks so much!
I love it....Boop oop a doop! : )
Wicked cool stuff! Or cool wicked stuff. Take your pick!
Amazing collection!
0:48 when Betty was a dog
Is that FUR on her arms??
@@ferociousgumby Betty Boop went from being a Dog to a FOX.
💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
Pre-Code is code for resistance to Herbert Hoover prohibition enforcement!
show more of these cartoons!
Did you see my first Pre-Code: Cartoons video. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/aMASremngEI/видео.html
What can one say but "hubba hubba ding ding" -
1:10 Didn't Disney sue over those Mickey and Minnie clones right there?
Yes. The mice were never seen again after that. You can actually watch those cartoons on RUclips though. Just type Milton Mouse Van Beauren studio and it should be able to pop up.
He did sue, but asked no monetary damages. He only wanted to let it be known that He, Disney, owned the MM likenesses.
These cartoons were cool and they were had class to and now it's the twenties all over again😂😂
The music is great
Had to start someplace. Those were the days.
Parents drunk cartoons great most these were banned lmao
Back when people had freedom of expression.
Today "expression" is subject to how popular it is.
That was the case then too. The Overton window of acceptable opinion has just moved.
Oooooo... Delightfully naughty!! :D
I just posted about applying "naughty" to these. I didn't see yours first. Great word, not always understood correctly.
Shirley Temple imn "Baby Burlesk" is 100 times worse!
Yeah now those are strange! These cartoons are weird to watch. But the baby burlesk is on the next level of disturbing. 😖😖 😧😧
Baby burlesk
@@patriciahodge7208 Would Baby Burlesque be another word for kiddie porn?
@@kaylaallison5471 reminds me of nowadays how some people have these pageants where they dress the little girls up to look like little s****. that's much worse than any cartoon!
Vaudeville itself isn't given enough credit. 😆
What cartoons were 1:11 & 3:42 from?
Edit: Nevermind I found out myself, they're called A Close Call & Farmer Al Falfa's Ape Girl
Incredible! Thanks a million!
Thanks. If you haven't already seen it, here's a link to my first pre-code cartoon video: ruclips.net/video/aMASremngEI/видео.html
2:15 !! Lady Dumitrescu?!!
Edited* Whoops, just saw the whole thing xD it is ofcourse not her haha!
Betty Boop 💕
Remind me to never watch this when tripping on acid.
Everything had outta be like this.
oughta
And thank you😂
I can't believe how much they got away with back then
Because people had thick skin back then & they’re “feelings” weren’t hurt over EVERYTHING & they were too busy trying to stay alive they didn’t have time to “protest” EVERYTHING
2:01 the Ape girl 1932.
Some of these were just plain ridiculous.
These were made back when animation was relatively new and cartoonists were experimenting...with style, sound/visual sync, and, if the rumors here are correct, drugs. As an aside: pre-code Betty Boop was ugly as sin and constantly had what we would now call "wardrobe malfunctions."
Okay - who was the actor whose famous quip was "How do you like that"?
"How you like dat?" was the catchphrase of Bert Gordon, "The Mad Russian".
Thank you! I've been going crazy trying to find out who that was.
I think I'm wrong; it might have been Harry Einstein, whose stage name was Parkykarkas...
I think they are great.
What cartoon was that at 1:53? Also, that clip from 2:43 is something I've never seen before!
The cartoon is Willie Whopper in "Hell's Fire" (1934).
Thanks! I had never seen a Willie Whopper cartoon but I always had assumed they were in black and white. And I see now that the other clip is from "Farmer Al Falfa's Ape Girl"!
Originally Cartoons weren't for kids .
Great compilation.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it.
For all the people who look back on "the good ole days" when entertainment was clean and decent, just like in real life.
1926 was a hell of a year
Hahaha at 5:37 he says, that dirty fuck’ 😂
