Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOn the ship "Ye Mayflower", are a couple of items WWII audiences would recognize. First is a plate saying "Henrye J. Kiser Construction Co." This is a reference to Henry J. Kaiser and his Kaiser Shipbuilding Co. which was a major builder of transport ships during the war. Second is the red "C" gas rationing sticker, which allotted more gasoline than "A" and "B" stickers and was issued to professionals, clergy, and war-essential workers. The cartoon also shows wartime tobacco rationing, someone receiving his draft classification of "1-A" (fit for service), and "4-F" (not qualified for service), but working at a Lockheed aircraft plant and living in a trailer due to housing shortages.

Featured review
Marvelous short. One of his best.
This short is wonderful! Take a pilgrim that sounds a lot like Droopy, add a turkey who sounds like Jimmy Durante, add a bear wearing a sandwich sign, let Tex Avery stir it all together and you have a great cartoon. Sight gags everywhere, especially the bear (typical Avery running gag) but beware ye old edited print off ye Cartoon Network-this is a classic. Most definitely worth looking for. Most recommended.
