Saturday Morning Cartoon: Mickey's Service Station

Here's one of my favorite Mickey Mouse cartoons of all time:  Mickey's Service Station, released in February of 1935.   This was the next-to-last black and white Mickey cartoon, and the first one to feature Mickey, Donald and Goofy working together as a team.  This cartoon never slows down from start to finish, with numerous gags constantly coming at you throughout the film.   You really have to watch it twice to catch it all.   One of my favorite moments is when Mickey holds the door open for Pete and it comes off the hinge...  It's a quick, subtle gag that you may miss, beautifully animated.  Mickey cartoons were at their high point in the early 1930's, and this was one of the last great ones before Mickey began to lose the spotlight to Donald and Goofy.  Enjoy!




As an added bonus, here's some production artwork from the film, including a different ending that was not used...
