I don’t get Betty Boop. Was she a kid? Why is she dressed all sexy? The way she’s drawn doesn’t match the setting, but tbf this is the only Betty Boop cartoon I’ve ever seen
They never actually said her age, but it could be anywhere from mid teens to late twenties. There was an episode where she’s married and has kids. She was dressed like a sexy flapper, but they toned her down after the hays code.
I think the entire run is available free on YouTube. Also look up Popeye the Sailor and the 1940s Superman cartoons. Superman was done in color with rotoscoping. The old B+W Popeyes are great. Once he joined the US Navy he lost his mojo.

[off topic?]
Back in the day, cartoons were played before the main feature. They were made for adults to enjoy and kids to follow if hey could.

And this one is an absolute classic.
Was there supposed to be a link?
I was responding to the post above mine with the YouTube link that was to Betty Boop and Minnie the Moocher.
You had ‘classic’ in bold. I thought it was a link. Silly me.
