One of the first Max Fleischer and Dave Fleischer animation films to be released in the Song Car-Tune series, which used the DeForest Phonofilm sound-on-film process, and which became famous for the slogan "Follow the Bouncing Ball", letting the audience sing along with the lyrics.
The first of Max Fleischer's experimental sound shorts to be released, made years before both The Jazz Singer (1927) starring Al Jolson and Walt Disney's cartoon Steamboat Willie (1928) starring Mickey Mouse.
