Rescatando a Pappy

Popeye's Pappy disappeared when he was a little baby smoking his first pipe. Now Popeye thinks he has found the old fellow on a distant island. There Pappy is, held captive by the barbaric Goons. Cn someone rescue someone else for a happy ending?

Although the word was invented earlier, E. C. Segar popularized it in the Thimble Theater about 1934 with his character Alice The Goon. This is also the first appearance in the Fleischer cartoons of Poopdeck Pappy.

This was the last cartoon the Fleischers produced in New York before their ultimately disastrous move down to Miami. The sequence in which Popeye is tied down to the ground indicates they were already doing work on GULLIVER'S TRAVELS.
