A Little History:
Fleischer Studios [1921-1942], Inc. was an American corporation which originated as an animation studio located in New York. It was founded in 1921 as Inkwell Studios by brothers Max Fleischer and Dave Fleischer who ran the company from its inception until Paramount Pictures, the studio's parent company and the distributor of its films, forced them to resign in April 1942. In its prime, it was the most significant competitor to Walt Disney Productions.
Betty Boop was the first featured female character in American animation. Created by Fleischer Studios in 1930 to upstage Bimbo in the Talkartoon series, she soon gained enormous popularity and became known as The Queen of the animated movies. It was Fleischer who produced the first sound cartoon, not Walt Disney!
