Black and white version (original was in color) of Deputy Dawg, which debuted in 1960. Ralph Bakshi worked in the animation department for this series.
After episode 10, Rabid Rebel, DD would get a nose job and a new golden badge instead of the tin badge he wore, Episode 11 Friend Fox was the first to debut his more familiar design. However, I like this early look better
Guess what? Very soon I might be getting a 16mm projector (only if my dad gets lots of money from work, which has a crisis and me and dad hope it ends) and I hope I could find a 16mm print of The Mild West (1947) on eBay very soon (if available)!
You probably know this already, but this was the first episode if DD. Jerry Beck has a fully restored color print of this; perhaps you've seen it already.
I have, love seeing the opening credits with the jazzy tune used as the end theme elsewhere... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MaX5oeG_eNI.html
