Is This Legitimate?

Hi Duewy 

 

I have been doing some research and it looks like it is not a genuine video.

 

There are spelling mistakes and there are clips taken from 1930's betty boop.

The music is Cab Calloway’s “St. James Infirmary Blues” from 1933 and is copyrighted for 50 years , meaning that it would not be used for other cartoons other than betty boop itself.

 

There is a chance that it was a real betty boop cartoon and then covered up, but the spelling mistakes and time it has taken to surface makes me believe that the video is not genuine.

If it was real, it could have taken inspiration from the Spanish Flu and George Orwell .. then covered up when things started go down that road.

 

Hope this helps !
