IT'S
FUN TO EAT

Description
We
stumbled upon this rare and beautifully preserved album on eBay
- it must have been
stored since it was produced in 1946. Condition is
flawless! Play this for your little ones to instruct and
entertain them on the importance of eating. Two names that
may ring a bell associated with this recording are Winston
Sharples and Jack Mercer. Sharples scored countless
animated shorts, including Famous Studios' Popeye. Mercer,
who sings on Sip-Sip Supper (Side 5 and 6), was the voice of the
one-eyed sailor for years as well as many other cartoon
characters. He can also be heard on Joey
the Jeep (Week 35). Speaking of Popeye, this would be as good a
place as any to show off our treasured box of Buitoni
Macaroni with added spinach. A childhood favorite from
the mid 1960s!
