Howdy Doody and His Magic Hat (1953)

This is a very cool short that I just read about in Adam Abraham's Excellent book WHEN MAGOO FLEW: The Rise and Fall of Animation Studio UPA! Buffalo Bob Smith did not like it and ordered the negative destroyed at the time BUT I think it has some very cool design work as all UPA does. I also read in this book that TEMPO ANIMATION STUDIO took an address in New York that is almost identical to Arthur Rankin's RANKIN/BASS address! Very interesting stuff!
