Did You Miss Me?- "Garden Gopher"

WARNING: RACIAL STEREOTYPES INCLUDED!

This funny Tex Avery cartoon was released with this cut even on the excellent "The Compleat Tex Avery" laserdisc boxed set.
Here you can see this gag as originally intended.

We start with Spike trying to get rid of the gopher.....

















In many print, after the explosion, we cannot see the effect of the explosion on Spike.
Here you have what you were not allowed to see...one of the most outrageous black face gags in cartoon history....










Yours Truly,
