At the Nickelodeon: Post Haste (1943) by Richard Massingham

Ok, so this is not a particularly intriguing film...but a gentle reminder to get your Christmas orders in Post Haste! Our final shipping day before the holiday is Thursday, December 19th! Overnight options may be available after that, but please contact Babil & Bijou first to ensure we will be able to accommodate you.

At the Nickelodeon: Flip the Frog in "Spooks" (1932)

Ub Iwerks presents Flip the Frog getting the skeleton hospitality treatment... (the first few minutes of this is giving me some Rocky Horror vibes...)

At the Nickelodeon: Los huevos de Pascua (1907) by Segundo de Chomón

"Easter Eggs" don't you wish your Easter Eggs contained this type of magic?

At the Nickelodeon: The Cookie Carnival (1935) by Disney dir. Ben Sharpsteen

Is anyone else feeling overwhelmed and sugar-shocked from a surplus of Christmas cookies still lingering around the cupboard?

This is one of my favorite Silly Symphonies  - it was released in 1935 as an homage to the Atlantic City  boardwalk parade and bathing beauty contest (that eventually became the Miss America pageant) of the 1920s and 30s.

Watch this a few times to ensure you catch all of the amazing, whimsical details.

At the Nickelodeon: Silly Symphonies - Flowers & Trees

If only animation remained as imaginative as it was back in 1932... The first animated short in full technicolor: "Flowers & Trees" courtesy of Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies series...
