Terrytoons was an animation studio founded by Paul Terry. The studio, located in suburban New Rochelle, New York, operated from 1929 to 1968. The studio created many popular cartoon characters including Heckle and Jeckle, Mighty Mouse, Gandy Goose, Sourpuss, Dinky Duck and Luno. The New Terrytoons period of the late 1950s and 60s brought us Sidney, Hector Heathcote, Hashimoto and Deputy Dawg as well as The Mighty Heroes. Famed animator Ralph Bakshi got his start at Terrytoons. Terrytoons were originally released to theaters by 20th Century Fox. Today they are owned by CBS-Viacom (under Paramount Pictures). This cartoon from 1943 is called Scrap For Victory. The opening scene shows a battle going on, and a soldier tells his commanding officer that theyre running low on artillery. The commanding officer phones in to headquarters, and he tells them of the situation. During the rest of the cartoon, a song tells how all scrap donations are needed for the war effort. Dump trucks and horsedrawn carts going up and down city streets, and people throw their scraps, such as old pots, pans and shoes, into the truck/wagon. At one point, someone throws a picture of Adolf Hitler into the back of one of the wagons. The song goes Have you got any scrap, have you got any wood, any iron, rubber, or tin? For we need all your might, Uncle Sams in a fight, and he needs your help again.\r
