So you get to imagine it, like on radio.įinally, Don Fateego and his daughter have had enough. Naturally, we don’t see any of this stuff getting wrecked because it would cost too much to animate. At one point, Baba acts like a golf caddy, complete with club bag, handing Quick Draw his “number five sword.” El Kabong destroys a “fine old chandelier,” “a fine old expensive vase,” “fine old priceless antique table,” “fine old genuine bone-china teapot” and, finally, a “fine old imported window” during the climactic sword fight with the Generale. So Don Fateego has a “fine, old hacienda” and that’s how it’s referred to during the duration of the cartoon (Rita hears it so much, she calls her father “a fine, old hacienda” until correcting herself). Mike Maltese glues adjectives that stick to everything. Quick Draw: Sorry, lady, but there are certain occupational hazards connected with being a masked hero. Rita: You have broken my final guitar on the gentleman’s head, you oaf! Generale: Anyone else daring putting me out? ( points sword at Baba) How about you, shorty? Do you dare?īaba: Huh? Oh, you can stay for dinner for all I care. Rita: For the 117th time, the answer is still “no,” ( smiles coyly) you handsome villain. Generale: I have come to ask for the hand of your beautiful daughter. Generale: It is I, Generale Badguyos, ( smiles at camera) friend of the people.ĭon Fateego: What do you want, you oppressor? Quick Draw ( singing off-key): Ohhhh, I won’t be at the round-up, Nellie, because I’m such a squaaaaare.ĭon Fateego: Who knocks at my fine old hacienda door? Quick Draw: Because no one will take my unmasked face seriously. Narrator: Tell me, Quick Draw, why do you hide behind the mask of El Kabong? However, someone objected to the villain’s line “Like Santa Claus, there is no such a person as El Kabong.” Yowp says: “Get a life.” Unfortunately, virtually all the sources I had for on-line newspaper archives are behind paywalls and I can’t tell you which paper it was in. I spotted it some time ago in an old newspaper.

The cacti, clouds and the rose-coloured mesas as well (compare them with Lozzi’s work in “Mine Your Manners.” The sign lettering is by Art Goble.Ī line of dialogue in this cartoon resulted in a complaint to a local TV station. The rolling hills remind me of Art Lozzi’s work. The first is the town San Chihuahua, and opens the cartoon. Here are a couple of background drawings. Here’s Carr (at least I think it’s him) in a teeny cubicle at the windowless studio at 3501 Cahuenga Blvd., with Dick Lundy in the background and a piece of Carlo Vinci to the right.

He was promoted to a full animator in September 1960 as “The Flintstones” was about to get on the air. Carr arrived at Hanna-Barbera in March 1959 as an assistant animator.

ID expert Howard Fein says Bob Carr is the animator of this short. The credits attached to this cartoon in its DVD release are incorrect.
