Very cool! My favorite Mickey cartoon is still his third: "Gaucho Mickey", where he smokes, drinks, gets into a knife fight, drops his pants, and chases women!

No, really! If you've never seen it you've missed some important Disney history!

Well, its not quite his pants he drops, ;) but I agree. The late 20s cartoons are important and interesting Disney history and hardly resemble the mouse we see today. Besides, Mickey and Minnie do a mean tango!

Anyone who'd like to see Zazu's favorite can see Gallopin' Gaucho here.

My personal favorite is from the mid-30s using that new fangled technicolor and is a Mickey we're more familiar with, though he still shows his excellent sword fighting skills. Thru The Mirror
