My grandfather was Allen Rose, the animator...wow,,,i never saw this one!

Famous Hollywood faces of the day included Joe E. Brown ("the big mouth") at 3:00; The Four Marx Brothers (including Zeppo) at 3:26; Jimmy Durante (and his "schnozzola") at 5:13 and Marie Dressler at 6:28. Also seen briefly are Maurice Chevalier, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd...

When I was little I remember seeing these old Krazy Kats.

High energy celeb toon to distract from the Depression. They really started throwing in the celebrities at the end. Some of the caricatures, like Roscoe Ates (the emmcee) and Joe E Brown (the huge mouth) were really good.

I've always been a huge fan of early animation. This is the first time I ever saw an animated Zeppo Marx.

Thanks for posting such wonderful cartoons! I'm also a fan of krazy kat! Cheers!! regards

That was a really fun cartoon. I really like those old celeb cartoons and there were a lot of good food/eating gags and music gags. And best of all, for me, was the mix of animal characters and humans: a real toon world. Despite never making the cartoon big time like Mickey, Bugs, Daffy, Donald, Popeye, or Woody, there were a LOT of Krazy toons made. So far I've only seen a few, but they are fun and interesting, and I'm looking forward to seeing them all.

I love the Marx brothers

Not to be confused with the original Krazy Kat of the comic strip by George Herriman, but this is a gem nonetheless. Party on!!

Roscoe Ates, Joe E. Brown, Groucho/Chico/Zeppo/Harpo Marx, Laurel and Hardy, Ben Turpin, Jimmy Durante and Marie Dressler

There was a Krazy Kat cartoon in the 1960s that was closely based on Herriman's comic- the characters were just the way Herriman depicted them. They came and went.

This is the first Mintz cartoon I have seen and the animation is surprisingly good. Not as funny or strange as Fleischer cartoons but better animated for that time.

Normaly, I prefer other character's design more than this, but it makes Krazy look adorable for some reason

Beautiful!

That man's high-pitched yelping makes me laugh 😂 😂 😂 and I'd say it's the funnest moment of any classic cartoons I have ever seen! I've found it absolutely hilarious 😂 😂 😂! It should have become a popular Internet meme. I'm from Ireland 🇮🇪

I miss these :) Good memories.

Never seen this before~~~ Thank's for posting! NOT "the" Krazy Kat, except for the name~~~ More of a Felix the Cat knock-off.... Not only does he not look or act like KK, he doesn't even resemble his illustration on the title card. However, I did just watch a Charles Mintz KK cartoon from '36 called Lil' Ainjil that IS a good representation of George Harriman's classic newspaper comic. And the voice-of-Popeye actor did Officer Pupp~~~ Regarding other comments below: With all the famous celebrity caricatures in the cartoon, nobody noted the Mickey Mouse piano-movers??! The music at 2:30 is not a song, it is just a generic intro vamp. It sort of suggests a german "oom-pah" band, and you can hear it in the Spike Jones novelty hit "Der Fuhrer's Face." The joke is, that the audience gives him huge applause for it, even tho he hasn't actually played anything yet... The character eating spaghetti looks nothing like Ben Turpin, tho he does have crossed eyes. Since all the other caricatures are pretty accurate, I'd say, it's not BT. He seems like a goofball typical of the era, like the Betty Boop character Mr. Wiffle-Piffle. And to me, he's a dead wringer for a Robert Crumb creation~~~ his work was very influenced by early-30's animation.

Wow. Better than anything Disney did - so much more fun!

Durante said at 5:15, "Am I mortified! Am I mortified!!!", 'TiCar'. That's was one of Jimmy's catchphrases at the time.

Actually, I believe Durante's line was "How mortifyin! How mortifyin''. They seemed to have changed it up slightly for this. The same with Stan Laurel's little cry/whimper.

Krazy Kat was on tv when I was a child.

I'm only 42, grew up n the 1980's, but even I remember seeing these old black and white cartoon along with all the old, great, looney toons that are banned now for violence, along with the old Tom and Jerry ones too.

6:58 I wish the end was clearer... I think I spotted some stars not included in the rest of the cartoon!

Gummo was never in the films, only on stage, so wouldn't have been so recoginzable to a cinema audience.

i love seeing harpo chaise the girls around

This is one of the livlier Krazy Kat pictures I've seen. Most weren't this good. I remember a Krazy from my childhood with a bunch of Russian Bolsheviks throwing big, round black bombs. Now that's one I'd enjoy seeing again.

umbrella hair...now that is comedy gold.

HEY!! And at the 2:30 mark he even starts playing the Looney Toons theme on the organ!! Awesome!!

😅😅😅😅well information good show 😅😅

2:46 Beautiful tune.

Definitely.

Don't tell Carrot Top about this one, he'd steal all the gags!

Wish it were louder....

The yelling comedian is Joe E. Brown. His yelling was his gimmick.

I'm just realizing there were two different versions of Krazy kat

The Band Concert (1935) 1:59

6:08 HE'S GOT A GUN!

George Herriman created Krazy Kat!

TCM played it last night. hopefully you caught it..

4:55 I was expecting a scene from "Lady and the Tramp"

That surely is Roscoe. I never would have guessed it, but I was wondering who it was too. It's the best drawn caricature in the toon.

Krazy may look a little different from the strip but he still has a bow behind his neck which is probably his trademark.

"muy bien" "otra vez" in spanish.

Joe E. Brown was in the cartoon.

Chester Conklin dines on spaghetti and Marie Dressler dances with Groucho. Can't place the gent who intros the Kat. They've quite the gang in the "dancing ring" and towards the end, but if their backs are turned I can't quite place 'em either.

I so love The Marx Brothers. They're just so wacky.

All four Marx Brothers! Wow! This is a rarity!

About the chords played 2:25 -2:35, I'm sure I've heard them before, but I can't remember where...could somebody enlighten me, please?

GREAT ANIMATIONS ...SO MUCH BETTER THAN MODERN SOUL-LESS RUBBISH that they produce nowadays! ....

Laurel and hardy

gummo choase being in the war over doing movies with his brothers

What’s the song at the beginning?

The M.C. Is Roscoe Ates, who was known for his stuttering shtick. The guy with the spaghetti seems to be Ben Turpin, because of the crossed eyes. It's not a real caricature of Turpin otherwise.

That was comedian Joe E. Brown. The "big mouth" thing was his shtick.

3:20 the four Marx brothers

This may have its own merits, but it bears NO resemblance to the George Herriman comic strip. Sheesh!

Do you mind if I use this in a Marx Brothers video I want to make? This is so great! :)

4:55 lady and the tramp reference

Who Does The Voices In This 1932 Cartoon?

I think that's Roscoe Ates.

Wasn't Ben Turpin one of the Key Stone Cops?

@OofusTwillip Li'l finga wegga.

4:26 his voice sounds very weird.

3:26

0:33-2:36 WHY IS EVERYONE DANCING AND CLAPPING LIKE THAT 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Is that Marie Dressler dancing with Krazy and then Groucho?

this is not krazy kat this generik kat trademark

who was the announcer in the beginning that stuttered?

People are corralled in a ring to dance? Social Distancing back then?

Who was the guy eating spaghetti

Do you suppose the Looney Tunes character Porky Pig might have been influenced by the guy at 1:21?

That didn't look nothing like Krazy Kat, and where was Officer Pupp?

Who is the fella with the large mouth?

I know the Marx brothers were 5 in number. For some reason, Gummo isn't present here.

3:52 stereotypical mammy That’s racist

I thought there were only 3 Marx brothers.

Felix rip off
