Silent Version · MadForTwenties · 2017-02-01
The sound is not missing. This is the original silent version from 1924. It was later reissued with a synchronized soundtrack. It may seem strange to have a silent song cartoon, but sing-alongs had long been a feature of live entertainment. There was always music accompaniment to silent movies, whether an organ, piano, or orchestra, so they would simply play along with this cartoon and the audience would sing.
