Shortline Bus 1,121 Posted April 2, 2009 Share #1 Posted April 2, 2009 Little treat for those of you wondering what NYC looked in around 1945 as World War II was ending. Here great video from Youtube i found from "Tom and Jerry' short movies i found. It was shown(still occasionaly shown on either the Cartoon Network or Boomerang/Cartoon network 2)on Ch. 11-NYC in 1970/80's when i was a young lad. This is my Easter/Passover Holiday gift to all of the boards who celebrate it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXobb7f5ncM&feature=related Please watch, enjoy and feel free to comment. Thanks.

Shortline Bus 1,121 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share #19 Posted April 3, 2009 Hudson River, laughing so hard is an understatement. The Hanna & Barbera era Tom and Jerry cartoons are the best. Now you mentioned it get ready to laugh your butts off again. Here T&J take on the Jazz aka zoot suit era of post world war II era aka 1946-50. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBdGEtBy_5Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maserati7200 31 Posted April 3, 2009 Share #23 Posted April 3, 2009 My grandfather who was born in 1934 tells me stories of how when he went to the movies it was a 5 hour event. You saw comedies, like Tom and Jerry or the Little rascals, vaudville, a full length movie, and more. I wish I could experience the 1940's, even though WWII was going on...

SubwayGuy 2,321 Posted April 3, 2009 Share #24 Posted April 3, 2009 Me too. Old school cartoons like "T&J' and "Bugs Bunny' rocks over most of the current gabarge imo of animated stuff. 100% agreed. Those cartoons could be funny without even having the characters speak. I'll still laugh out loud at them when they're on. Wiley Coyote and the Road Runner are some of the funniest cartoons ever.
