Meet King Joe

Garry North this week on his website announces his discovery of archive.org and the pro-capitalism cartoons of former Disney cartoonist, John Sutherland.

Two of the animated shorts North points to (1, 2) are in the list I gave on Thursday. Here's one I missed:

North gives more details:

In the late 1940s, a former Disney cartoonist, John Sutherland, started his own cartoon production company. Various organizations hired the company to produce cartoons about the free market. Some of these cartoons are really quite good. I saw one of them, "Meet King Joe," back in 1959. It was produced in 1949 for the National Education Program at Harding College, a Church of Christ college in Searcy, Arkansas. In 1949, Harding College was unique: politically conservative, pro-free market. It still is at the top of my list as the country's most conservative college, department for department. Harding's president, George S. Benson, was a great believer in free markets. The cartoon is 8 minutes long. It's ideal for 4th graders or 5th graders.
