Description

This is a page from the 1953 "Felix The Cat" comic.

(cue music) "Felix the cat, the wonderful wonderful cat, whenever he gets in a fix, he reaches into his bag of tricks". Those were the lyrics used for the television show that began in 1953, which is also when this page was published. From Wikipedia, "Felix cartoons began airing on American TV in 1953."

"Felix's origins remain disputed. Australian cartoonist/film entrepreneur Pat Sullivan, owner of the Felix character, claimed during his lifetime to be its creator. American animator Otto Messmer, Sullivan's lead animator, has also been credited as such. What is certain is that Felix emerged from Sullivan's studio, and cartoons featuring the character enjoyed success and popularity in popular culture. Aside from the animated shorts, Felix starred in a comic strip (drawn by Sullivan, Messmer and later Joe Oriolo) beginning in 1923,and his image soon adorned merchandise such as ceramics, toys and postcards."
