Disney may have "started with a Mouse"--but the first great cartoon studio started with a dachshund! Max Fleischer, Walter Lantz, and Paul Terry all launched their careers at the silent animation house of John Randolph Bray--and now you can meet the animated heroes who were born at Bray's barn: Koko the Clown, Col. Heeza Liar, Krazy Kat, and the sausage-gobbling sausage-dog of J. R.'s famous first film, THE ARTIST'S DREAM!
