There is Hollywood Picnic
Working on cleaning up List Of Shows That Need Summary
Thanks. That one doesn't appear in the "see also" section of the Wikipedia article for "Hollywood Steps Out."

I can't recall a cartoon that has a bunch of them, but I do recall the Bugs Bunny short 8 Ball Bunny
to have a brief cameo of Humphrey Bogart.
Maybe look back on the filmography of Friz Freleng, he did a lot of those. The CooCooNut Grove is another.
Edited by Bananaquit Confirmed Bachelors: the dramedy hit of 1883!
The Animaniacs used to always spoof stars of the 90s and before, which is now 'yesteryear' I guess.
There are lots. "The Woods are Full of Cuckoos" (Warner Brothers, 1937) "The Coo-Coo Nut Grove (WB, 1936) "Book Revue" (WB, 1941) "Slick Hare (WB, 1947) "Mickey's Gala Premier" (Disney ,1933) "What's Cookin' Doc?" (WB, 1944)
And, for a furry version, "Hollywood Canine Canteen" (WB, 1946).
Thanks for your efforts.

I enjoy old cartoons that are chock full of caricatures of the movie stars of yesteryear. Of course I know about "The Autograph Hound" and "Hollywood Steps Out", and today I discovered "Mickey's Gala Premiere", but are there more like these?
