''''The Peanut Vendor'''' is an early animated short film made by experimental film maker Len Lye, in his second known film ever. The animation was made to set the popular song, "El Manisero" by Don Azpiazu. Here the vendor is a fun-loving monkey, with a presumed crush on the lady he's selling peanuts to. The most memorable thing about the short is the titular monkey, and his very unique design to say the least.

The short is in Public Domain and can be viewed [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojsRWoYpVfU here]]. Do not be confused with the [[Creator/MaxAndDaveFleischer Max Fleischer]] cartoon, which was also based on the song.
