I haven't posted one of these for a while so here goes. This is another one of those great Superman cartoons that were produced by the Max Fleischer cartoon studio. Did I ever mention that when Paramount went to the Fleischer Brothers and asked them to whip up some animated cartoons of the then-new comic book character, the brothers weren't interested? That they quoted a high price tag so as to discourage Paramount? And then Paramount agreed to pay it? The money sure wound up showing on the screen.
This is Superman and the Magnetic Telescope, which was released on April 24, 1942. It still seems to be Bud Collyer doing the voice of Superman and Clark, with Joan Alexander as Lois…and I don't recognize any of the other players. Here you go…
