The 60’s were extremely violent, and turbulent years. I came along in 1940 so got to see WW2 and Korea plus the absolutely golden and forever singular 50’s. Things started going sideways in early 60’s with the “free speech” movement in Berkeley, JFK assassination , and the LBJ disaster. Then there was King, Bobby Kennedy, Watts, Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, Viet Nam and all the rest. Much of the senior current democrats came out of all that as the filth they are.

Junior Frolics on Newark, NJ's own TV station played only old cartoons, with Uncle Fred doing a kind of narration, because they had no sound, usually. But there was always wonderful Flatt & Scruggs type music, which is I think why I loved them, although I didn't realize it at the time.

Here's one with the Skillet Lickers.

If you know anything about animation, you can see that these were real low-budget. The more times you could photograph the same piece of art, the more money you saved.

Exactly. We moved from Milwaukeestan to Madistan in 1970. Dad took Sis & I to the UW Campus to see the Sterling Hall bombing.

Good object lesson; the ‘Rats reinforced how violent and INSANE they are to me from that day forward!
