The animation historians have done it again and uncovered a lost Skitzo the Bear cartoon scrap! This one dates from circa 1922 and played in theaters for 1-2 weeks before all know copies were collected and burned.

Archives mention that audience viewers who watched a complete version of "Circus Sillies" had missing eyes and burst stomachs. Morgue records describe it as hemorrhages to their guts from uncontrollable laughter, vomiting blood, and screaming.

This tiny scrap from "Circus Sillies" was discovered in the mummified remains of a clown performer buried in a unmarked grave in the woods of Pennsylvania . A sticky note on the reel notes: "Do not sit too long with his gaze or your soul will be marked as I was...". There is still no complete copy of a Skitzo the Bear cartoon, but this one is the longest segment discovered thus far!

Enjoy!!
