Jerky Turkey

Jerky Turkey (1945)

A dopey Pilgrim goes hunting a turkey who speaks in a Jimmy Durante impersonation and runs the local black market. War and rationing gags abound (Pilgrims line up behind a sign reading "Ye Cigarettes Today"), as well as a running gag featuring a bear wearing an "Eat at Joe's" sandwich sign. The turkey harnesses the power of gags to save himself.

Curiosidades

Jerky Turkey is a 1945 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) cartoon directed by Tex Avery. Jerky Turkey is one of three MGM cartoons in the public domain in the United States as its copyright was not renewed.

Production

Some voices were provided by radio actors Wally Maher and Leone LeDoux, who had previously voiced Screwy Squirrel and who specialized in baby cries, respectively. Some internet sources cite voice actor Daws Butler as the voice of jerky turkey, but he did not make his first voice appearance until 1948 in Screen Gems' Short Snorts on Sports.

While it's not known if he would have had a cameo, The Turkey from the short can be seen in a storyboard of a deleted scene from Who Framed Roger Rabbit entitled "Acme's Funeral".
