Mostly reused footage from the Max Fleischer two-reeler Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor (1936) with new wraparound animation and a new soundtrack.
Second of two cartoons where Popeye appears in his comic strip uniform.
While in other cartoons, Popeye has 4 nephews (named Peepeye, Pipeye, Poopeye, and Pupeye), here there are only 3 unnamed nephews.
One of the ships used by Christopher Columbus can be seen as Popeye first passes Noah's ark.
