It's time for another big batch of archival 16mm (no digital!) animated cartoons from the 1920s through the 1950s, straight from Tommy José Stathes' film archive to Rubulad's silver screen...

Our 115th program places the spotlight on animated adaptations of famous comic strip characters. Spanning the 'platinum age' of newspaper strips through the early golden years of comic books, notable characters and series will include Mutt & Jeff, Krazy Kat, The Katzenjammer Kids, the Toonerville Trolley, The Little King, Henry, Nancy, Little Lulu, Superman, Popeye, and others. Don't miss this!

NOTE: This will be an *extra long* Cartoon Carnival, featuring more than two hours of film material. We'll have two intermissions instead of one. Guests will enjoy plenty of opportunity to stretch and get more refreshments throughout the program.

TWO SESSIONS: We're hosting TWO back-to-back screenings of *the same set of films.* The first will take place at 3pm, and the second at 7pm. To be clear, the second show will be a repeat of the first.

SPECIAL ADDED ATTRACTION: The incredibly talented ragtime pianist, Charlie Judkins, will be joining our 3pm program with mood music during intermissions and live accompaniment during silent era film selections. Charlie will not be present for the later 7pm program.

Be sure to bring all your offbeat film-loving friends out to see these now-rare cartoons the way they were meant to be seen—projected on 'reel' film, and enjoyed with a live audience.

Cartoon Shopping and Film Archive Benefit Sale:
As a fundraiser for the Cartoon Carnival series and our film archiving expenses, we'll have various goodies for sale—such as early animation Blu-rays/DVDs, collectible enamel pins (Betty Boop, Gumby, Koko the Clown, and others) and brand new cartoon character t-shirts in various sizes! Grab some goodies for yourselves or as gifts for friends, while benefiting a good cause.

Rubulad will have bar refreshments and some light snacks will available such as regular and vegetarian hot dogs; there's usually also popcorn. Please support the venue for all drinks consumed. Bar/food are *cash only.*
