Above, from Hans Fischerkoesen’s 1943 cartoon Scherzo: Verwitterte Melodie / Weather-Beaten Melody, produced in Nazi Germany. The image comes from the website of Animateka 2012, an animation festival held last month in Lubljana, Slovenia, and is either a production sketch or a piece of promotional artwork, rather than a still.
As linked to in a tweet below, you can see the short and find out more about Hans Fischerkoesen at Michael Sporn’s Splog.
