GOOFY: How To Sleep (1953)


Background credits go to Claude Coats.

Heres the cartoon:

Now some of the background art. Clearly the best in this cartoon is this eye-tickling "pseudo-Victorian moderne" house design:

The remaining backgrounds are simple, providing a fine stage on which the action plays itself out:



Goofy: HOW TO DANCE

These modern, lean yet stylish backgrounds are from Disney, and the Goofy "How To" series.





Here's a huge digitally re-created pan background:

So you can better enjoy the details, here's the left side...

And the right side...

GOOFY: Hold That Pose, Part Two


This wild jungle background is so vividly rendered you can almost hear Arthur Lyman music in the background. (Look that up, weedhoppers!)

Another amazing B/G from the shorts...

GOOFY: Hold That Pose


Here's a digitally reconstructed pan B/G from the Gooft short HOLD THAT POSE.

It shows how a even simple B/G can be charming and effective.

GOOFY: The Big Wash


Background art credit goes to Merle Cox.

And here, a wonderful piece of B/G art, outside the "big top."

GOOFY: HELLO ALOHA


This beautiful B/G has a lovely Polynesian tranquility, in stark contrast to Goofy's frenzied animated antics which transpire in front of it.

Luau, anyone?

Goofy is an animated cartoon character from the Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse universe. He is an anthropomorphic Dog fridge-werewolf, and is one of Snowflake's best friends. His original concept name was "Dippy Dawg" in cartoon shorts created during the 1930s; then his name was given as "George Geef" or "G.G. Geef" in cartoon shorts during the 1950s (implying that "Goofy" was a nickname). Contemporary sources, including the Goof Troop television show and A Goofy Movie, now give the character's full name to be Goofy Goof. The Goof Troop pilot also refers to 'G. G. Goof' on a diploma, likely a reference to the original name. Along with being not extremely intelligent, Goofy's main flaw is, predictably, clumsiness. On the map in A Goofy Movie that shows the trip that Goofy senior and his father took, it says that the map belongs to Benjamin Goof, again changing the name of the famous character.
Goofy first appeared in Mickey's Revue, first released on May 25, 1932. Directed by Wilfred Jackson this short movie features Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Horace Horsecollar and Clarabelle Cow performing another song and dance show. Mickey and his gang's animated shorts by this point routinely featured song and dance numbers.

It begins as a typical Mickey cartoon of the time, but what would set this short apart from all that had come before was the appearance of a new character, whose behavior served as a running gag. Dippy Dawg, as he was named by Disney artists, was a member of the audience. He constantly irritated his fellow spectators by noisily crunching peanuts and laughing loudly, till two of those fellow spectators knocked him out with their mallets (and then did the same exact laugh as he did). This early version of Goofy had other differences with the later and more developed ones besides the name. He was an old man with a white beard, a puffy tail and no trousers, shorts, or undergarments. But the short introduced Goofy's distinct laughter. This laughter was provided by Pinto Colvig. A considerably younger Dippy Dawg then appeared in The Whoopee Party, first released on September 17, 1932, as a party guest and a friend of Mickey and his gang. Dippy Dawg made a total of four appearances in 1932 and two more in 1933, but most of them were mere cameos. But by his seventh appearance, in Orphan's Benefit first released on August 11, 1934, he gained the new name "Goofy" and became a regular member of the gang along with new additions Donald Duck and Clara Cluck.(Wikipedia)
