Popeye: Taxi Turvy

Welcome to Cartoon Friday. Today's offering Taxi Turvy features our old pal Popeye the Sailor, and was made in 1954. In my opinion that was the best Popeye cartoon era, although I do consider the old black and white cartoons to be a very cool historic curiosities. Poor Olive Oyl is in the middle again as Popeye and Bluto battle over her, this time in some cool vintage taxi cabs, both with suicide doors no less! Of course, spincah comes to Popeye's rescue, a requirement in any one of his cartoons. As a side note, when I was a little kid I always had a pretend can of spinach for anything I might have to do that would require a little extra umph!, I really was an amusing child.

-Enjoy
