Bosko, the Talk-Ink KidHugh Harman & Rudolf IsingFriz Freleng & Rollin HamiltonMay 29, 1929 (1929-05-29)

A cartoonist (portrayed in live-action by Rudolf Ising) draws Bosko, who comes to life. Bosko speaks, sings, dances and plays the piano before the cartoonist sucks him into his ink pen and pours him back into the inkwell. Bosko pops out of the bottle and promises to return.

This is a live-action/animated short film starring a character named Bosko. The film was produced in May 1929 and shown by the two to various distributors. The film was first made viewable to the public on Cartoon Network's television special Toonheads: The Lost Cartoons on March 12, 2000, in an edited form. The full cartoon is present on disc 4 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 1 as a special feature. The film is in the public domain as it doesn't have a copyright notice.

All cartoons are Looney Tunes starring Bosko and are all directed and produced by Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising, along with Leon Schlesinger as associate producer. All cartoons are scored by Frank Marsales. All cartoons are in the public domain.
