Trivia Items:

  • Keep Circulating the Tapes:
    • 27 of Flip's shorts are included on the "Cartoons That Time Forgot" DVDs, as well as one short on "Return of the 30's Characters." Eventually all 36 shorts were rescued as part of Thunderbean Animation's Blu-Ray collection.
    • The first four non-MGM shorts (along with the 1933 entry "Techno-Cracked") were allegedly distributed in Technicolor as well as black and white, though no surviving colour reels have been discovered for any of them besides "Fiddlesticks" thus far.

General Trivia

  • Flip the Frog is one of the few animated works to caricature Zeppo Marx alongside his more famous three brothers.
  • Several famous animators worked on the shorts including Grim Natwick, Shamus Culhane, Irv Spence and Chuck Jones.
