Sinkin' in the Bathtub (1930)
Sinkin' in the Bathtub is a 1930 American animated comedy short film by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising. It is the first Warner Bros. theatrical cartoon short as well as the first of the Looney Tunes series. The short was released on April 19, 1930, at the Warner Bros. Theater in Hollywood. The cartoon features Bosko, and the title is a pun on the 1929 song Singin' in the Bathtub. The film was erroneously copyrighted under the same title as the 1929 song. It is now in the public domain in the United States as its copyright was not renewed.
